Only breastfeeding should be given to babies below 6 months of age Breastfeeding is best feeding for babies All mothers have sufficient milk to feed their baby it is just the assessment of milk adequacy which they fail to understand. Any baby passing 6-8  times urine every 24 hours on breastfeeding is getting adequate milk
