A member asked:

I have 4 month old active baby .he is on bottle feed.can i give him banana n potato with formula milk ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Infant feeding: You can introduce solids at age 4 months to 6 months. It is not to replace his breast milk or formula but to introduce him to new tastes and textures. Your baby is ready for solids if he has doubled his birth weight and his good head control and has lost the tongue thrust reflex.
