Quantity of formula milk for my baby
Dear doctor,
My baby is 1 month and 10 days old and she is not taking mother's milk. We are feeding her nan pro 1 right now. But we are confused how much milk we should feed our baby so that her stomach get full. We are also concious about the her digestion. Is feeding more formala milk can cause more gas issue in her?
Also let me know if the mother milk is given with the help of breast pump or nipples shield, is there any harm to her ??

Breast milk is best for the baby there is no harm of using breast pump or nipple shield ... but natural methods are always better...
If the baby is taking formula milk and not breast milk most probably the problem is with latching or attachment.. try to resolve this..
Feed as much as the child wants either breast milk or formula milk. There is no fixed quantity as such...
