Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Milk is very important for babies specially in the initial days of life breast milk is very important and should be given exclusively till 5-6 months of age .
formula milk should be given only 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 different 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 shoulkod be started and any kind of health drink powder in milk should be used only after the completion of two years of age .
Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 1 m old girl3 years agoA. hi
but why are you giving formula?
mother's milk is nature's best food for a child.
so please stick to breastfeeding only.
but if it is not possible then you can offer formula after consulting with your pediatrician.
he or she will prescribe it as per your child age , health and weight.
