A. Hello dear ma’am, please do not worry about it too much. It is not advisable to give anything to the baby other than mother’s milk till the age of six months. Please take Shatavari powder with milk to increase breast milk supply. Also also massage your breast gently before feeding the baby. Please make sure that the baby is in correct position to latch to the breast properly. Once the baby completes six months of age, then you can start giving formula milk to the baby. Thanks and take care
