A. Many times the baby is not satisfied with the mother's milk and he remains hungry due to which he drinks milk repeatedly and does not get all the essential nutrients due to which his weight does not increase. You can give Dexolac Stage 1 to your baby which will fill his stomach and he will get all the nutrients which will help in his good growth.

A. If your baby's doctor thinks it's necessary, you may have to supplement your baby with additional feedings of either pumped breast milk or infant formula. You can also try to pump and separate your foremilk from your hindmilk. Hindmilk is higher in fat and calories, which can help your baby gain more weight.
