Hi Ladies,
After 6 months your baby needs other sources of food, breast milk alone won’t meet all the requirements of the body.
So I did research to find out some details on this. These are only approximate values.
| Nutrient | Breastmilk percentage | First food percentage | Source |
| Carbohydrate | 70 | 30 | Rice wheat potato |
| Protein | 60 | 40 | Curd, dal, milk |
| Calcium | 90 | 10 | Milk products, spinach |
| Iron | 5 | 95 | Dal, leafy vegetables, supplements |
| Zinc | 30 | 70 | Dal, leafy vegetables, supplements |
| Vitamin A | 90 | 10 | Carrots, spinach and yellow fruits |
| Vitamin D | 10 | 90 (this one is based on sunlight exposure) | Supplements such as ultra d 3 |
Hope this helps!!
