Asking for Self, Female, 22 years old, Islamabad
My daughter is 4 months 20 days old. she is on breast feed plus formula milk. from last month, usk gums m sensitivity start ho gai thi uski wjh sy wo hr chez ko moo me ly k chew krti hy. we tried to give her teether but wo forn gira deti hy. usually feeder ka nipple ya fingers ko chew krti hy.. my few questions are: 1. what can we give her to soothe her gum sensation.? 2. can we give her any solids ? 3. she is not taking formula milk from last 2 days properly. wasting all milk by spitting. and breast feed is not fulfilling her need. so what to do in this case as all day she take feeder after several hours. meanwhile for past months, she usually had feeder after every 2, 2.5 hours. Note: we changed her formula milk almost 3 weeks ago. initially we were using (neolac-1) for 4 months and now another doctor recommended to use (nan-1 optigro)
WA..She is probably on teething,and it will settle after tooth eruption.Don’t have to worry much ,just make sure to wash her hands/teether frequently.Baby s intake keeps on variation during growth period.Don’t push her too much,it will settle.Solids are recommended only at 6months.and Breast milk is never less for a baby.The more you feed more it will come,its from nature.Its due to teething that she is irritated and try to find comfort in feed.
don't be worry during teeth eruption phase this will be normal ..solid introduce only on 6month give her exclusively first breast feed then go on formula milk and for the safe site took your child to child specialist they will check it's normal or either child have any other issue
iys normal during teeth eruption continue mother feed and formula milk ,solid food start after 6month
walaikum asalam. Not to worry she is probably teething. not to introduce solids . weaning is started from 5-6 months of age. you can apply DOLTEE gel on gums for irritation. continue breast feed
