At 4 months you can give soft solid food, and continue the breastfeed. If you give solid foods before 4months it can leads to obesity to babies.

After the child's adoption of the mother's milk in the first months of his life, he reaches the age of five months, after which the mother begins to give him semi-rigid and rigid food, supplementing the mother's food (milk) and helping to build the child's body. Mother's milk is an integral diet until the age of 4 months to six months, but their children grow somewhat slower than normal. We help them feed their body with breast milk to help them grow. Gastrointestinal at the age of four months is not fully mature, can not perform absorption and digestion, which may lead to diarrhea and digestive disorders. With the beginning of the fifth month begins to accept food. And the best food we start by giving the child from the age of four months to six months, "rice for children," We give the child spoon or two of the rice mashed, and this meal after the child had taken his share of breast milk, and then give him rice Mashed. And mashed potatoes may be provided by the mother after a week of serving the baby's mashed rice with the third and fourth trimester of the child per day, and here the child is five months old. Then, after the age of five to six months of age, the mother can provide her child with other foods, the mother tries to provide vegetables for the child, cooked of course, or fruits well-sauteed (such as peeled apple in the mixer, and mashed banana); The mother can also give him well-cooked meat. When the child is six months old, the mother can provide his wheat powder and mashed egg yolk. Giving a child at this age salty and sweet foods is not at all common. Children's foods should be "general", soft, or "doughy", and should be easy to digest and chew because children do not have the ability to chew food well in the first months of their lives. In the mouth yet.

Whatever you decide, try to give your baby nothing but breastmilk until He/she's six months old (exclusive breastfeeding). This will give your baby a healthy start in life. When your baby is ready to try her first solid food at six months, you can still carry on breastfeeding her/him. Breastfeeding can be continue upto two years of age.

Once a baby is giving birth to, feeding can take place. Preferably, breast milk
