Complementary Feeding After 6 Months

At 6 months, babies need more than breast milk alone. Start safe and nutritious complementary foods while continuing breastfeeding up to 2 years and beyond.

✔ Begin with soft mashed foods like fruits, vegetables, cereals, pulses, and eggs
✔ Feed 2–3 times a day at 6–8 months, then increase as the child grows
✔ Always keep food preparation clean and safe
✔ Be patient and encourage the child – never force feed

Breast milk + complementary feeding = Healthy growth and strong immunity

Congo Virus Awareness | Prioritize Safety This Eid 🐄🩸
The Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a life-threatening viral disease, commonly transmitted through the blood of infected animals—especially during Eid-ul-Adha, when animal handling is at its peak.
📊 In recent years, the toll has been alarming:
• 2023 – 17 reported deaths
• 2024 – 9 fatalities
• 2025 – Already 1 life lost
⚠️ There is no known cure for CCHF.
🛡️ Prevention remains the only effective defense.
Follow these safety measures:
✔️ Wear protective gloves while handling livestock
✔️ Ensure proper disposal of animal waste and offal
✔️ Avoid direct contact with animal blood and tissues
This Eid, let’s act responsibly.
Protect your health, your loved ones, and your community.
📢 Raise awareness. Prevent the spread. Save lives.

Eid is around the corner, and once again, livestock markets are packed and buzzing with excitement.
But just like every year, a silent danger still lurks in 2025 — the Congo Virus.
CCHF (Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever) is a deadly virus transmitted through infected ticks on sacrificial animals.
It has claimed lives in the past three years… and it’s still a threat.
This Eid, take precautions.
Protect yourself.
Protect your family.
Help stop the spread.
Join hands with the Government of Balochistan — and make safety a priority.
