General question about baby
As it's little difficult to talk about this in a typical Indian family. Wanted to have the suggestion here.(since i dnt have much idea on this)
My sister had a baby a month back. Perfectly normal. Later i found out the baby is being fed formula instead of breast milk. And due to this baby is being constipated many times. As I heard my mother talking about this. Shouldn't the baby be fed with breast milk for the first 6 months/1 year?

You know what is ideal.
Your sister will also be knowing what is ideal.
But your sister must be having a reason why she is feeding her baby on formula milk. And she doesn't want to share that reason with you.
Please ask her if you can convince her to discuss this problem.
