Yes of couse its right. From SIX months onwards semisolid food both cerelac, nestum or home made food should be added to the diet of the baby to continue proper growth of the baby. If the baby wants your food give him and encourage to take more, only look into the matter that the food is properly smashed and made semisolid as the baby will only swallow it.
