Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The options are:
You can try to give breast milk, as with frequent sucking the quantity of breast milk will increase and the baby can become accustomed to breast milk.
You can try different brand of milk power for which he can adjust possibly.
Some of the available brands are Dexolac, Dexolac premium, Nan etc.
Before starting one of these better to consult your regular pediatrician and take his advice regarding this.

frequent sucking also doesn"t satisfy him properly...so i hv to give him top feed after my feed by the gap of hlf an hour.Is cow milk better than nan or lactogen?can i switch over to nan or lactogen than cowmilk?
Hi,
Usually breast milk is the best food for the baby.
If not, in top-feeds that is better to which he gets adjusted.
As now he got adjusted to cow milk that is better.
So when you are going out if cow milk is not available you can use one of the milk powders I suggested.
If he becomes adjusted to it you can continue that instead of cow milk.
