If he is full, then there is no need.

If he is not full, instead of formula milk - I would recommend if you're able to buy pure cow (Desi) milk. give that as it contains same type of protein as compared to breast milk.

no Divya , if weight gain is OK , and baby wets around 10 diapers , no need to give formula milk or anything else . babies use to irritate and cranky , it's normal , u should exclusive breastfed upto 6 months. mother's milk is best for baby

Divya , irritated doesn't means he is hungry, and as per his birth weight , his weight is also gud ...so don't worry

cow milk is not recommended UpTo one year. Baby cannot digest the protein in it.

pls check with your doctor. it's not necessary the baby should be of standard weight as per norms. if he is increasing weight taking into consideration his birth weight. it's ok. you can start feeding formula milk by feeding him once a day. but as per my experience. he will feel hungry soon .. with formula milk.
