Exclusive breast feeding provides optimin nutrition to the baby, it is favourable for the immature gut and easily digested. It contains all the necessary nutrition expected for the baby. Just a good burping post feed for 10 minutes will help better digestion and also relive baby of flatulence.
Next Steps
Continue breast feed for 6 months followed by gradual weaning.
Health Tips
Vitamin D3 supplements is recomended in this age group.
