Q. Hello Experts, my baby is 6 days old. For initial couple of says she was on formula feed and was very relaxed and sleeping well. Now we have reduced her formula feed and started with breastfeed, but she is always crying. It has been difficult to understand the problem and calm down the baby. We tried longer breastfeed as well as formula feed. She is passing urine 8 to times a day and motion 3 to 4 times a day. Please advise, guide.
