A. Actually my breast milk is not enough for baby. That's why needed to introduce Formula milk. But not able to understand how much she can intake. As sometimes after finishing a bottle she seems hungry,but just after burping ( instantly or later) she spits up some milk. So not sure if she is actually hungry or overfed. And I give her formula every 4-5 hours, in between she takes breastmilk. But since few days she sleeps for long at night and don't want to take any feed. should I wake her up for feeding every 4-5 hours.

A. give accordigng to demand of the baby 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 be used only after the completion of two years of age .

A. There is no fixed amount that I can tell you to go ahead with it would be giving feeding to the child as per the need and demand of the child because there is no specific amount of feeder I can suggest you to go ahead where if your child is full with whatever you are giving and gaining absolutely good weight then that’s not a problem with whatever amount of Milte childless consume Mein
