RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. No If your child is taking feed every four hours that got a minimum time we count is about 2 to 3 hours your child is normally full 42 to 3 hours that means that the mother is giving sufficient for each other is no requirement of giving formula feeding to the child also initially a child can take some time to latch on so it’s okay also when you try to breastfeed the child press your breast with your hand that with the flow of the Milk is going to be better don’t give formula unnecessarily till the time it is not required
