#asktheexpert My baby is 3months old… He is gaining weight slowly only. I am so much in a dilemma to give formula or not. Does formula feeding make my babys brain development worse ? And even delay the milestones ?

A. Formula feeding doesn’t delay the milestones. Formula only if your doctor prescribes it. Otherwise, please take high-protein diet on a daily basis and that will improve the quality and quantity of your milk.
