A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and if breast milk is not enough or not ther then we have to give baby formula milk and this is the only option available and also yes breast milk is best for kids and given exclusively for first six months. But if breast milk production is not there then we have to give formula milk. Take care

A. Mam ofcourse mothers milk is the best for the baby but as a mother you tried your ways to feed them that's more important. You have made efforts and it's not the case that every baby is completely breastfeed. Some have no milk at all so it's fine. Don't feel too much stressed on it. Whichever way remember that you are the best mom to your child. Talking about formula feed it has got effects. It is the best milk to offer the baby next to breastmilk. You need to give only breastmilk or formula for the baby till the completion of 1 year to the baby Animal milk can introduced post 1 year completion
