Milk substitute for 3 months old baby
My sister in law has a baby boy, but somehow she says that she doesn't produce enough milk for the baby by herself and complains that baby is not fed properly, is there any substitute to give to the baby?

Firstly we have to check adequacy of breast milk. For that please monitor baby's urine output ( it should 8-10 times per day ) and also check for weight gain. Mostly baby may not be needing any additional supplements
