A. when you dilute the formula milk the energy and the protein value of the formula milk decreases. the child gets more water with little nutrition. it is advisable to change the brand of formula milk if the child is not digesting one particular brand of formula milk

A. If your baby seems constipated, consider simple dietary changes: Water or fruit juice. Offer your baby a small amount of water or a daily serving of 100 percent apple, prune or pear juice in addition to usual feedings. These juices contain sorbitol, a sweetener that acts like a laxative.
