Hello, Whether to give bottle or not - it's personal choice. I as a child specialist, don't recommend bottle use because it's difficult to maintain the true bottle sterilizing method. Rest is parents choice. Milk should be used preferably which is being used in the house regularly. Avoid milk powder - because it's difficult to maintain the exact proportion of water and milk powder. Follow my Instagram/tiwari_child_tiwari for health Q&A. 🙏Tiwari child clinic Delhi🙏

If you are a working mother --- Best to start bottle feed after 8 weeks of age to avoid nipple confusion. Although better is to give katori / katori spoon feed rather than bottle feed. Best to avoid formula milk. Even if you a working mother uts is possible to feed your baby with only and only breastmilk. I am a lactation professional and can guide you on what to do. You cant judge what quantity a baby needs at a particular time. At this age baby would need around 600 ml/ day milk but cant say how much when
