A. there is a hole in the nipple so that milk can come out through the ducks and the child can take breastfeeding you have to give only breastfeeding /milk to the child till completion of 6 months of age and before 6 months of age if you are giving any type of outside food or complementary feeding it can cause digestion problem in the child. no need to give water also because breast milk contains 80% of water and water also is given after six months of age only. it is advisable to continue the the multi vitamin and supplement medicines given by your doctor.

A. Hello dear parent! Without proper physical examination is not possible to understand the condition you mentioned. Consult your doctor for a personal examination and seek for advice. Clarify all your concerns and follow your doctors advice.
