My 5 months old son stopped taking brest feeding since he was 4months old. He is now on formula milk. he is active, healthy & his weight is also fine. From next month we will start feeding him fruits, dal, juice etc. is it going to harm in his growth since he left brest feeding early.

A. no, it will not harm him.. Formula is better as it is made similar to breast milk. continue with formula milk.. after completing 6 months.. gradually start weaning food.
