About baby food
Hello Doctor,
My wife delivered a baby boy on 30 dec 2020. Due to some complication, he was born 35 weeks 4 days through C-section and weighed 2.4 kg. My wife was & still unable to breastfeed him due to low quantity of milk, so our doctor prescribed Pre -NAN milk food of Nestle for six weeks for the baby.
It's almost six weeks complete and he takes milk almost every 2 to 3 hours. Shall we now change and give the milk food of a normal baby to him? If yes, then which one?
Kindly guide us.

Please meet a lactation specialist and try to establish breast feeding. If not, you can use stage 1 formula if good brands (0-6 months)
