breastmilk is sufficient for nutritional requirements for first 6months of life. No other food is required during this period.

wa alykum salam

The general recommendation is to start solid foods at 6 months of age.

However, it may be started from 4 months onwards ONLY IF the baby has good swallowing reflex , no history of choking and is ready/interested in solid food. Remember the food MUST be pureed ( meshed, soft with no solid bits in it), can start with just a tiny amount and see how baby deals with it. Any coughing, chocking or difficulties in breathing, must stop.

I hope it clarifies your query. If in doubt, get the baby checked by a QUALIFIED and Experienced Pediatrician.
