A. better to give only mothers milk to the baby in 6 months of age if milk is insufficient then we can think of giving some formula milk for the baby .

A. hi no first , mother's milk is best food for a child. so please offer plenty of breastfeeds,the more your child latches, the more milk is produced. and if your child looks happy and active, gains enough weight, passes urine at least 7 or 8 times in a day then no need to worry about anything
