#AskTheExpert My baby of 17 days is taking formula milk mostly as I produce less. Is it okay for her? How much milk I should give her? What should be the time interval between feeds? How can i increase my breast milk?

A. Regarding formula just follow instructions over the box. Feed every few hours mentioned so your baby will be healthy. in the first 3 months, babies put on about 800-900grams each month. From 3-6 months, weight gain reduces to 1/2 kg/month. from 6-9 months, it becomes 1/3, and for 9-12 months, it becomes 1/4 kg. the birth weight doubles in the 4th month and triples when they reach 12 months of age.
