Starting solids at 6–7 months is one of the biggest milestones for your baby — and the first few weeks determine lifelong eating skills.
This Paediatrician-Approved 6–7 Month Feeding Guide + 30-Day Meal Plan gives you complete clarity on what to feed, how much to feed, when to feed, textures, safety, readiness signs, and how to help your baby build confident eating habits.
Created by Dr Saroj Tiwari & Dr Rahul Verma, this guide is backed by WHO & IAP guidelines and is 100% Indian-family-food friendly.
Whether you're a first-time parent or feeling unsure, this guide removes all confusion from the first month of feeding.
Sitting, head control, tongue thrust, interest — all must be present before starting.

Warm, confidence-building closing note.
• Because 6–7 months sets the foundation for ALL future feeding.

• Because this guide shows the correct WHO & IAP backed method of starting solids.
• Because the first 14 days are CRUCIAL — and this guide gives exact step-by-step instructions.
