A. Milk is very important for babies specially in the initial days of life breast milk is very important and should be given exclusively till 5-6 months of age . formula milk should be given only as a substitute to breast milk if due to any reason it is not sufficient to fulfill the demand of the baby. according to the age different stage of formula milk are there like stage 1 till 6 months of age stage 2 from 6 months to 12 months and thereafter stage 3 .bk after one year cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .

A. In 5 months, baby should drink approximately 120-180 ml of milk per feed in every 3-4 hours. In the entire day, 6-7 times feed should be enough. Also, now let him take long night sleep of 6-7 hours and there is no need to worry if he does not take night feed. Now the pattern will change. Also, you can introduce some semi solid foods in the diet for full nutrition like lentil puree, mashed banana, apple, pear and carrot puree.
