A. Milk for babies specially in the initial days of life is very essential,breast milk is ideally the best and should be given exclusively till 5-6 months of age . if your baby is having proper weight gain and urine output then you can consider that the baby is getting satisfied with the milk and there is nothing to worry. formula milk should be given only when suggested by your pediatrician as a substitute to breast milk if due to any reason it is not sufficient to fulfill the demand of the baby. according to the age differen⁴t stage of formula milk are there like stage 1 till 6 months of age stage 2 from 6 months to 12 months and thereafter stage 3 . after one year cows milk should be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .

A. Hello dear parent, if your baby is exclusively breast fed then you should feed your baby every two hours. But if your baby is urinating 8 to 10 times in the day then no problem if baby sleeps for 3 to 4hours. But must try and breast after 3 hours once. Be Use breast milk is very light and digests very quickly,
