Info about Similac Milk
Hi Doctor
My daughter is 2 month old.. A week before she started breastfeeding.. She is both on fm and bm. Earlier we used to give her nanpro but now we have changed to similac as nanpro was causing gas and discomfort to her. Want to know about similac, it seems to be thick once milk is prepared and it causes lots of foam.Is that the texture of this milk. Earlier she used to poop twice now the poop is only once. Is she constipated from similac.
Also what mother eats like spicy or cold or hot or fast foods does it affect breast feeding baby? Will the baby get cold or constipated from food what i will eat?

I still go for breast feeds. Stool is semisolidgolden brown , pass 2- 4 times a day. You should eat healthy nutritious food full of fiber. Don't use much of teekha. Use ginger, garlic and lemon on top . You can use jeera saunf . They are good for stimulation of breast milk output .Hygiene to be taken care of. Take care against mosquito.lot of malaria and dengue around. All of family members must take vaccination against Covid19 and use mask and distancing. Sneeze in sleeves elbow.
Next Steps
Continue breast feeding. Introduce banana in diet.

Consistency of similac and nanpro both are same. If foam is noticed, check for package, date of expiry etc, prepare formula milk with guidelines written on pack.
Your baby seems not suffering from constipation.
Add probiotics for few days for enrichment of gut flora.
Mothers diet should be healthy for baby to remain healthy.
