Hi Dear
Welcome to the Health Care Magic.
Congratulation !!!.It is good that you have started the weaning in good time. Gradually try to increase the frequency and amount of semisolids in his diet.
Try to rotate the menu and give more stress in the food articles which he likes more.
Now he is towards six month of his age .Simple dal pani will not work for him. Try to add semisolids and select the more nutritious food plus also try to know what are the calorie dense food which can be given in semisolids form.
In the end I would like to advice you for gradually withdrawing the bottle and shift towards the cup or mug, spoon feeds.
All the best
Happy parenting.
Thanks
