Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, thanks for asking.
Yes you can start complementary feeding now in babies. What you are giving is correct. After they are six months you can start giving them food three times a day. The consistency of the food should be semi solid.
You can also give mashed fruits, rice, boiled veggies etc.
I hope I have helped you.
Thank you.
