Greetings everyone! I am Dr. Deepa Aggarwal, Senior Consultant Pediatrician and Head of Department at Mayom Hospital, Gurgaon. I studied at renowned Lady Hardinge Medical College and did my postgraduation from Kalawati Saran Children hospital, also referred to as Asia's biggest children hospital. Further to my residency at AIIMS, Delhi.All these prestigious institutes helped me develop a deeper understanding of all Newborn and childhood illnesses and gain vast experience.

Most of all, supporting and guiding mothers to craft the best future for their little ones. Stay safe! Stay blessed!

Homemade cerelac has become popular again but many babies are being given complex mixes too early.
At 6 months, babies don’t need variety. They need simplicity so their gut can learn to digest.

The goal of starting solids is not to make food “power-packed.” It’s to introduce foods safely, one step at a time.

Have you started solids yet, or are you planning to?

Mommies, your body is constantly listening.
Before a baby can explain discomfort, breast milk already responds.

Breast milk isn’t the same every day. When a baby gets sick, a mother’s milk naturally changes to help, protect and support the baby’s recovery.

This is why breast milk is often called “living food.” It adjusts to a baby’s needs, the time, and even the baby’s health, showing just how powerful the connection between a mother and her child truly is.

💬 Comment PLATE for the full guide. You’ll get a detailed pediatric-approved blog link with:
✔ age-wise portions,
✔ sample meal plans,
✔ picky-eater tips,
✔ oil & ghee guidance

A child’s plate decides more than today’s meal- it shapes growth, immunity and habits for life.
Think colors, whole grains, healthy protein, right fats and water first. Small changes = big impact.

Breastfeeding uses more energy than your brain and almost as much as your major organs combined.
So if all you did today was feed your baby… You did enough. You ARE enough.♥️💪
