A. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended for babies till the baby completes six months and breast milk is the best for the baby. Formula milk should be given only if for any reason can't give breast milk. it's not meant for weight gain. Feed the baby well on one side till empty and then switch to the other side so that the baby gets hind milk which helps in weight gain as it's thicker compared to foremilk
