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 . after one year cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should bev used only after the comnpletion of two years of age .

A. Hi If you couldn’t feed your child for sometime and now you want to feed your child. Then you can continue with it else it’s a very good time for you to quit breastfeeding if you want to quit breastfeeding also and you can go ahead with quitting breastfeeding as it is the right time for you to quit
