Baby passing stools after taking formula
My baby is 2 months old. My milk supply is good and sufficient for baby but she wants to feed formula milk for passing stools. If I'm giving breastfeeding then also she seems unsatisfied and cries,in this situation if I give her formula milk 90 ml or 120 ml she will pass stools immediately. Like this she will do two times per day,other wise she is taking mothers milk only. How to avoid this situation??

dear parents.
lactation is a art. crying by baby has many causes.
according to me stop formula milk &give exclusive mother milk which is amrit for baby.
according to hold the baby in one arm keeping his head at elbow joint and the buttocks in the palm of same arm and feed the baby for 15to20minutes. hold the outer palm of baby in between the thumb and index finger and press the palm when ever baby sleep or stop feeding.
after feeding put the baby on left shoulder and pat just behind stomach level for 5mintues to burpe on back of the baby.
baby burp 3to5times.
after burping lay down the baby onright side of the baby putting a pillow below head maintaining that head is above level of stomach.
don't feed baby in lap.
don't pat over shoulder.
don't use wipes.
feed baby from one breast at a time.
drink lots of water before breastfeeding and during breast feeding.
exclusive breast feeding till 6th month of age.
formula milk inferior to mother milk.
