Question I want to know if i should start feeding my 8.5month old baby dalia? I am avoiding wheat as i read somewhere that wheat may trigger allergic reaction in infants and should be avoided till infant is 1 year old. So should i wait feeding him dalia till he's one or should i start? He is having solids in the form of khichdi, dal, apples, pear, ghiya. is his diet adequate? anything else i can add in his diet?
