A. you should give only breastmilk till completion of six months.. even during travelling... you should never give anything else as it may cause indigestion issues.. better avoid travel without emergency

A. Hello,yes offcourse you can give your baby formula milk ,but use it occasionally,else it's also been seen that seen that babies stop breast-feeding and start feeding on formula milk only,so breast-feed your baby more and as an alternate you can give some time formula milk also.
