Mom of a 1 yr 8 m old girl1 Year ago

Q.

I mix feed my baby(2 month). Give breastfeed through the day and formula milk 3 to 4 times. I try to wean off formula or atleast not increase it. After every formula feed, my baby cries hysterically for more FM. I am not sure if I should give her more every time she demands or not. It hurts to see her cry for more but I am scared of overfeeding formula. Pls help.

A. What is the amount of milk that you are giving because generally a minimum amount of the child gain consuming this age whether it’s formula milk or breastfeeding is somewhere around 60 ML so if you are giving enough 30 and 30 then that’s good enough not a problem yet if you feed your child is constantly hungry you can give about 10 ML or 20 ML more
