A. Babies digest formula more slowly than breast milk, so if you're bottle-feeding, your baby may have fewer feedings than a breastfed infant. As babies grow, they can eat more at each feeding and may go for longer stretches between feedings.

Q. #AskTheExpert Dear doctor madam, My baby is 2 and a half months old now. She intakes a combination of breast fed milk and formula milk. However in the past few days her formula milk intake has increased to around 200 ml per day (4 to 6 times a day of 30 ml each formula feed). Is the quantity high? How much should be the ideal intake for her. Her weight as of now is 3.2 kg. She was born with 2.1 kg. Kindly please suggest on how much to restrict her intake of formula milk feed.
