Should we give Nan for 3 months old baby
Our baby had birth weight of 2.600 kg after 2 months her weight is 3.900 kg. Some of our relatives are suggesting to feed her Nan for growth. She is on BM and feeds ok, pees 10-12 times a day and does potty about 4-5 times. And feels happy and content with BM. Can we give Nan with BM for better growth? After she completes 3 months? I have heard some side effects like loose motions in some babies are they true?
