Talk to Pediatrician on Formula Milk For 1 Month Baby

person-avatar

Asking For Other, Female 1, Lahore

Respected Doctors!

My baby is one month old now Masha'Allah. Baby is not receiving sufficient amount of mother milk so I was using Meiji formula milk since her brith. Now I want to ask which formula milk is better for 1 month baby along with mother milk?

Kindly recommend a best formula milk?

I'd be grateful.

The best formula milk is worst for baby. There is no comparison with the mother milk. It would be cruel to give any milk other than mother for your innocent & precious baby. Anyhow, if you want to adulterate your baby’s feed, then the best Tier is NAN -1 or Meadjohnson milk. Meiji comes in the 3rd tier and so is not the best among formula milk. Comparing mother milk with formula is like comparing horse with donkey. The best donkey can’t be better than a horse. But among donkeys you can have grade. And Meiji or Morinaga are ranked on 3rd line among 5 categories. Hope this suffices. By the way, how did you decide that mother milk is not sufficient?

Sir, after 2 hours of taking continuous mother milk she cried a lot, it seems her appetite is not dying with mother milk but after taking 30 ml formula milk after mother milk she feels calm. So I assumed that mother milk is not sufficient for her that's why she cry.

Let me share with you few facts. A baby would normal empty one breast in 5-7 minutes. That mean it would take 10-15 minutes to take feed from both sides. Then usually she would sleep 2-3 hours. If she is taking longer than that time that means your breastfeeding technique is not correct. So that means that you need to learn the right technique. Otherwise I don’t think there is any problem. Given properly mother milk is never insufficient. Even for twins. Bibi Haleema breastfed two babies simultaneously.
