Hello... My daughter is 4 month old and isn't able to fill her stomach with my milk. I have talked to the doctor and taken the medicines and dalia, bajra, green vegetables etc. Is it advisable to give her milk powder? Will it lead to health problem in future? Please suggest.

Hi Nikita firstly any solid food is not suggested for babies below 6 months.. they should only be fed with milk... u can give him any formula which he likes and this does not cause any problem in future.

Thanks. I've heard formula powder doesn't makes immunity strong. Is it so?

Hi,you can start NAN for ur baby. But I suggest to feed with ur milk once and formula milk alternatively.

Formula milk has almost all goodness of breastmilk but it cant matchup the qualities of breastmilk. But if ur baby is not satisfy then u can go for formula milk without any second thought. But simultaneously keep feeding d baby with ur milk also. Dexolac, nanpro are some of d good brands

If you feel milk is less or baby is not able to satisfy and you wish to start FM then before starting FM better consult your pedc for which brand to give and about quantity to give baby.

Hi Nikita.... don't think about formula milk first.... in fact try to hav a better lactation... if ur milk is not enough try to increase the quantity n quality.... my daughter is also 3 months... I'm on good quality diet.. n suggest u to hav food tht helps in better lactation... like dil leaves, saboodana, fennel seed, fenugreek seeds, fresh coconut. It really works... n above all feed ur baby every two hours...
