I have a 2.5 months old daughter. Previously I used to express my milk and bottle feed my baby. But recently I have switched over to exclusive breast feeding. How will I know that my baby is getting enough milk?

A. hi if your child looks happy healthy and active, gains enough weight , passes urine at least 7 or 8 times in a day ,it indicates that your child is getting enough milk. please breastfeed your child as per his or her needs. maintain good hygiene.
