Baby is not feeding well

2024-02-17 04:30:34
My baby is currently 3 months old and currently fourth month, his weight is 6 kg from the beginning, he is on formula feed and he didn't latch well so I am giving formula feed from 3rd month, I am giving my milk pumped and giving him to a quantity of 60 ml but sometimes only because I have low milk supply. Now the baby is not feeding and not willing to drink milk and sleeps longer.what should I do and what quantity of milk I should give to him in which quantity either formula or expressed breast milk per 2 or 3 hours

If child is gaining weight 500g per month Passing urine 6+ times a day Then it is normal. If there is cold or nasal block then also it can decrease feed intake.
