A. Hi mom Mother should exclusive breast feed her baby till six months.. If ur bm is insufficient then u can give formula milk to ur baby.. Avoid using pacifier. It will be difficult for you to get rid of this habit in future.. If ur baby is crying know the reason for crying. Do not suppress it with pacifier.
