4 Month Baby feeding ques
Hello, my baby boy is 4 months 10 days old and exclusively on breast milk till now. Weight- 5.9 Since last one month, baby wants to suck on breast at night many times. I feel it is not due to hunger but he just wants to suck on something for comfort. One doc suggested formula and another cerelac but i m not convinced.
