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 formula 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 stick to it. as the age of the baby increases after six months as you can introduce a s cc wemi solid food also so try to make the baby more dependent on a balanced diet rather than formula milk .

Hello dear parent! Try expressing your breastmilk and feed it to your baby in such situations. Be patient and persistent in your efforts. Latch your baby well onto your breast and make a good skin contact with your baby while breastfeeding. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil. Speak to your doctor for further advice.
