Can I Give Cerelac To Baby At Night?

Hi.. My Baby boy is 9 months old. I feed him rice with dal and any vegatable like carrot/ spinach/ potato and he likes eating all kinds of fruits like banana, apple and suppota. Only once a day i feed him with cerelac in the night at 8PM as last meal so that it is easily digestable. Should i continue using cerelac? (heard processed food is not good) if not, what food can i use as a last meal in the night? He is weighing 9 kgs, he is active and crawling.

Pediatrician 's  Response
The weight of your baby is appropriate for his age. Also as per your description, the baby looks active. It is good to give home based food and till the age of one year the infant should take what is cooked at home, I.e family pot feeding. Try giving mashed dal rice or khichari or porridge in milk to the baby instead of formula feeds.
