Pediatrician Questions Feeding baby

Can you please suggest a diet plan for my six month old baby that will help in weight gain?

My baby is 6 months old but is not gaining weight. I am now starting his solid food diet. Can you suggest an appropriate diet that will aid weight gain? Should I still try to supplement with breastmilk?

formula or breast milk should be the main part of his diet at 6 months old. He needs 24-32 oz a day. If breast feeding make sure he gets the hind milk which has more calories. If he is not allergic the dinners have more calories than the single vegetables, Also add poly-vi-sol 1 ml by mouth or in milk daily
