Introduction
First time milestones achieved by every child are really precious to their parents. Most of the parents remember or record their baby’s first step, the first sound, first word, first food etc. For the first six months, children get only breast milk or formula milk. The first introduction of solid or semi-solid is very important. The first solid food or the transition from a liquid diet to a solid diet is always a celebration and is done by checking the good muhurat based on the baby’s birth star or zodiac sign.
The first food is also known as Annaprashan or Annaprasana, a Sanskrit word that means food feeding or food eating. Annaprashana marks the beginning of solid food in a child’s life. Annaprashan is celebrated in a Hindu traditional way and the baby will be given all types of food, say, salt, bitter, sour and spice. It is to be noted that parents won’t introduce the new food in larger amounts, but just for namesake. This celebration is followed in many parts of the country with slightly varied customs and rituals.
