A. Of course you should start giving formula feeding again for a child every month should be about 500 g so right now your child should practically be somewhere around 750 g more than the birthweight since you are saying there is no increment that means a breastfeed you are giving is absolutely of not use you should completely start with formula feeding and quit breastfeeding that’s the thing that you can do
