My baby is 3 months old, as i dont lactate great my baby is on FM from day 4. Earlier we were given him nan pro stage 1, but i felt it was causing gastric issue hence i changed it to Enfamil.

Difference b/w Nestle Nan Pro & Similac

My boy is 28 days old now. His weight is 3.5 kg. I am giving him Nestle Nan ExcellaPro as my in-laws feel that my breastmilk is not being sufficient for him. He has a good appetite. But, now I want to change/switch to Similac. What is the difference b/w two? Could I change the product as Similac is more affordable cost-wise. Thanks.

Very less feeding and vomit thru Nose

My Daughter is 1month and 12 days old and has palate cleft, she's constantly taking very less feed approx 200ml/day which has resulted in wt loss from birth wt (3kg) to (2.8kg) present wt. Since last 2days she vomits during sleep and milk comes out from her nose. (we keep her at 30 degree angle and also ensure her burp after feed) still randomly she aspirates. She's taking baby Domperine 5ml as per Dr's advice. Kindly suggest some measure to improve her feed. (Note-we are feeding her with special bottles for cleft babies)
