Q.

Hello! Being a first time mom, I am highly concerned about my child's feed when I will be resuming my work... There's so much confusion whether a baby can be bottle fed or needs to be spoon fed... Requesting you to kindly throw some light on advantages and disadvantages of bottle feed and can we give bottle to a 5 month baby?

A. Hello mom , not to worry we are here for her and do are best to guide you in all possible way. bottle feeding though convienent still it has its cons , so oral health issue, also to wean the baby off it is difficult at times , direct skin to skin feeding is the best. you may instead try a sipper cup and now that he is 5 month old weaning foods also can be introduced

A. If you are going to resume with work you have two options if you have a really good amount of breastfeeding you can express and leave it at home anybody at home can feed the child when the child as demanding for it otherwise if you are okay with giving formula feeding that also you can start as of now because slowly or child will get used to it and when you’re not around your child can easily have formula me there is no problem with formula feeding it is hundred percent safe to be given
