Suggest Food Chart To Be Followed For An Infant

My baby is 4 months old I want to start nestum rice . Which is better to mix with water or Nan pro 1. And how many times I need to give the nestum rice? And how many scoops I have to use to mix. Moving on how many scoops I can use for maximum. My Dr suggested me to give boiled potatoes and apple purée. What is the best time to give these things to my baby is it in the morning or night time. Now my baby weight is 6.5 kgs. Please send me the weight chart of the new born so that I can check whether the wheight gain is gradual or not. Kindly answer my quarries and help me out.

welcome to hcm,
According to me the baby has to be exclusively breast fed for 6 months. i dont advice any weaning foods untill 6 months. all the essential nutrients and baby digestible things are in mothers milk only.
all the weaning can be done after 6 months only try one food first and include the other if you have no problem from 6 months only.
there is a growth chart for you
