A. Then if you are breastfeeding is less then you give more of formula feeding to the child currently that’s going to be rather more appropriate but the food that you are willing to start for the child can only be started once your child completes the age of 26 weeks from birth and that’s right age for you to go ahead with it currently it is just going to be formula what ever you are giving to the childWrite Your Answer Here
