A. formula milk is supposed to be used only when advised by your doctorIf you are not able to give breast milk to your child you can give formula milk but only under medical guidance you can use any brand which can be easily digested by the child. Formula milk may cause constipation and gastric issues to the baby for which you need to take proper precautions at most hygiene is also important if the baby is having any loose motion aur vomiting aur any other problem to a particular formula milk brand it will be better to change the brand but if if the baby is comfortable with one brand it will be better to stick to it. as the age of the baby increases after six months as you can introduce a semi solid food also so try to make the baby more dependent on a balanced diet rather than formula milk.if you are facing any problems regarding breastfeeding during your lactation period it is always better to take help from your lactation expert who will recommend you various methods for improvement. the phenomena of breastfeeding is completely related to hormones and the signal sent to the brain with your thoughts so it is very important to stay positively motivated and continue to put efforts.medicines re not of much help.if there is then you can apply cold press locally and take Dolo tablet which is safe during this period.
