A. it has to be slow. Breastfeeding is the best source of natural immunity and antibodies to a newborn baby never give formula milk as it is not required at all exclusive breastfeeding is a must for good immunity and baby health , reduces colic and gas issues and overall brain development of the baby. No water , ghutti or any other syp is given till 6 months of age .

A. See after the age of three months kids get their vision to do quite distracted by their surroundings if you want to feed your child try to feed your child in complete isolation your child is only exposed to your face for destruction nothing else and if the child is not accepting bottle try giving it with bowl and spoon once your child gets used to it it would be easier for you to introduce bottle then.Write Your Answer Here

A. Hi mom To put the habit of bottle feeding, someone else should give bottle feed to ur baby.. If u will give, baby will not accept because he will search for breast feed which he has been taking from u since birth.. Take care
