Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. for low breast milk supply you need to take plenty of liquids and high fibre diet and give frequent feeding to your child so that milk production increases as it is a hormonal phenomena regulated by signals to the brain so you should feel positively motivated and do not try to give formula milk unless advised by your paediatrician and if the weight gain and urinary output of ytmouyour baby is normal .if required you can also take help from a lactation consultant who will guide you in a very proper way regarding establishment of good lactation as well as will help you in relieving pain if you have any. medicines are not of much help in this but definitely your diet is very important.

Jasmine KaurMom of a 9 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. Hello dear parent, if your bahy is urinating 8 to 10 times in the day by just consuming breast milk then your baby is well fed and your milk supply is sufficient for your baby. If you still feel then yes you can give formula milk to your baby.
