Mom of a 1 yr 5 m old girl1 Year ago
Q.

My baby is 15 days old. I express my milk and give her 6 times on an average 30 ml each time and 4 to 5 times of formula milk - 30 ml each time. I am worried that I am not able to give her breast milk completely. is it like only if I give her x ml daily continuously my baby would get the immunity required or is it fine to give 50 percentage of breast milk and 50 percent of formula milk?

A proper is counselling is required which can be done by a lactational counsellor along with a proper diet with plenty of liquids some supplements may be helpful like shatavari . Also try to avoid giving top milk in initial stage specially with bottle feeding which may be the culprit for lactational failure most of the time .
