no need to give formula for weight gain.
as a child is 8 months old,for Healthy weight gain ,give semisoild food twice in a day along with breastmilk whenever your child demands.
give food like boiled mashed potato, sweet potato, rice, sago,Ragi , etc
feed your child on each breast at least 20 minutes so he or she can get full fat hindmilk well which help to increase your child weight.
