Quantity of Formula milk

2021-02-25 08:31:18
Hi, My baby is 5 weeks only. I am using Nestle Lactogen 1 milk for him. Quantity is 50ml par two hours. Is it sufficient or I can increase the quantity. I am also giving him breastfeeding but it is not satisfying his stomach. Please advise the quantity according to two hour as he is waking up within two hours after sleeping. Thanks,

You can increase the breast milk frequency. Breast feeding is the best.
