A. Milk is very important for babies specially in the initial days of life breast milk is very important and should be given exclusively till 5-6 months of age . formula milk should be given only as a substitute to breast milk if due to any reason it is not sufficient to fulfill the demand of the baby. according to the age different stage of formula milk are there like stage 1 till 6 months of age stage 2 frgom 6 months to 12 months and thereafter stage 3 . after ogtne year cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .

A. You keep your child’s head in the elevated position when you are feeding the child and also keep your child on shoulder for at least 15 to 20 minutes after giving feeling little bit of vomiting and spitting out is completely normal that’s due to stomach reflux so that’s completely normal in that case you don’t have to worry about itWrite Your Answer Here
