Is It Required To Give Packet Milk For 4 Months Old?
Hello Dr, I have a 4 month old baby girl. I am feeding her with breast milk and home-made ragi porridge. Ragi porridge is given thrice a day (Morning by 9, Afternoon by 1 and Night by 7). Is it required to give packet milk for her? I should go to office from next week and she keeps crying if I am not with her. My in-laws or mother can t manage her once she starts crying? I can only come during my lunch to home for feeding her and it s difficult to come before 6 clock in the evening, Please suggest what should be done if she keeps crying.

hi,baby cries for lot of reason.hunger,loneliness or boredom.start her on formula feeds.dont give packet milk as it can cause allergy and it would be too heavy to digest.you can use breast pump to express milk and store it .it can be stored over 24 hours.
