A. You can go for formula milk consumption for your child after medical consultation with your dr.

Also if one brand is going on it is advisable to continue the same brand and do not switch to different brands again and again because many times it can lead to digestion problem. So if a particular brand is well digested kindly continue that particular brand of formula milk You have to follow demand feeding that is if the child demands more milk you can gradually increase the quantity Give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity.
