Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. you can go for formula milk consumption for your child after medical consultation with your dr.
you can go for any brand which is easily digestible by the child but if the child is not able to digest and has colic pain vomiting and loose motion or constipation due to a particular formula milk it is advisable to change the brand.
also if one brand is going on it is advisable to continue the same brand and do not switch to different brands again and again because many times it can lead to digestion problem.
so if a particular brand is well digested kindly continue that particular brand of formula milk
you have to follow demand feeding that is if the child demands more milk you can gradually increase the quantity .
the recurrent stretching / curving of the body again and again as well as uncomfort / making grunting sounds as well as hiccups as well as colic pain all are due to gas in the intestine and stomach.
it is very important that after giving milk to the child you
should keep the child in upright position and do burping for 15 to 20 minutes(irrespective that you hear the burps or not). gas in stomach causes hiccups.
do not keep the child back on the bed after 1 burping because one time burping will not remove all the gas and if the gas is not removed properly it goes into intestine causing abnormal distension and that will lead to colic pain again and again.
keep the child in upright position whetzher you hear the burping sound or not and also it is not important that you will hear the sound when the child removes the air from the oralz cavity.
RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. Okay so whatever amount of milk you are making this reduce down the amount of powder that you are adding suppose to taking 60 ML of water instead of adding two spoons of milk go for 1 1/2 and then check if it suits because maybe the milk is heavy as of now this way it will be a little light
