A. formula milk is supposed to be used only when advised by your doctorIf you are not able to give breast milk to your child you can give formula milk but only under medical guidance you can use any brand which can be easily digested by the child. Formula milk may cause constipation and gastric issues to the baby for which you need to take proper precautions at most hygiene is also important if the baby is having any loose motion aur vomiting aur any other problem to a particular CDformula milk brand it will be better to change the brand but if if the baby is comfortable with one brand it will be better to istick to it. as the age of the baby increases after six months as you can introduce a semi solid food also so try to make the baby more dependent on a balanced diet rather than formula milk.

A. Hello dear parent! Ideal milk intake should be around 150ml for every kg weight of your baby. If your baby is 5kgs then formula milk should be given around 750ml per day. Continue feeding your baby well on demand for better health, nutrition and hydration. Good luck and take care.
