Q.

Hiii doctor , my kid is 4 months old . We are giving him lactogen as baby feed milk but he is very reluctant to take it ..so the only way at present to feed him with baby feed lactogen is to give him in bottle while he is sleeping .. How much baby feed milk should we give and how much mother milk ? also he is very cranky these days , is it because of more lactogen feed ?

A. try Babyhug weighted straw sipper blue.. you can now try giving milk with sipper as the baby can hold if baby is refusing feeding bottle.. try to comfort the baby as rub the head back as you feed.. you can try changing milk as similac nan pro if baby doesn't take lactogen..

A. At 4 months, your baby may be taking 4-6 ounces (120-180 milliliters) at each feeding, depending on the frequency of feedings and his or her size. By 6 months, your baby may be taking 6-8 ounces (180-230 milliliters) every 4 to 5 hours. This also depends on whether you've introduced any baby food.

Q. #AskTheExpert How is Lactogen as a formula feed. I have changed from Aptamil 1 to Lactogen 1. The baby does receive little breast milk. She should be receiving the share of probiotics from mother's milk. So isn't it ok to continue with Lactogen
