A. milk production depends upon suckling reflex of baby. the More frequently you feed.. more will be production. give formula 60-80 ml only at bedtime. start cerelac after completion of 6-7 Mon

A. Cerelac is good for 6 months old babies. Nestlé CERELAC Rice contains single grains and is rich in iron, containing on average 50% of the RDI* per serve. CERELAC also contains probiotic, Bifidus BL and can be easily mixed with a teaspoon of your baby's favourite vegetable or fruit puree for a tasty variation.
