A. please give only breastmilk till completion of six months. feed more frequently for more production. give formula 60-90 mo at bedtime only. start vitamin d and multivitamins supplements regularly and give Sunbath every morning

A. He is only on formula as there is no milk supply for me, yes he is very active and responsive, he sleeps well as well only food he takes little and poos every 3 day once, also he gains around 600 to 700 gm every month

A. hi all babies are different so they have their own specific sleep and feeding patterns. so if your child looks happy healthy and active, gains enough weight then no need to worry about anything. just ensure that your child should pass urine at least 7 or 8 times in a day
