What Is The Difference Between Cow S Milk And Dexolac Powder?

Hi Doctor, We are blessed with TWIN GIRLS, they were born in the 30st week (in 7th Month of Pregnancy)..with a weight of about 1.6 Kgs & 1.8Kgs . Doctors advices us to use Dexolac special care milk powder..as mother milk was not sufficient. Now..after 1.5 months after they are born(they are nor more than 1.75 Kg 2.5Kgs), Doctors adviced continue the Dexolac special care. What is the exact difference between cow Milk and Dexolac powders? Can I feed cow milk to both babies. How much quantity should we feed and how many times a day ? We were feeding Dexolac Powder every 2hrs 50ML to 70 ML sometimes babies throw away some milk from their mouth(kind of vomit ) like after 1 hour of feeding..Please answer...Thanks

BOTH THE MILK ARE GOOD PROVIDED PROPER DILUTION IS MAINTAINED AND SO ALSO AS LONG AS WEIGHT OF BABIES IS SHOWING GAIN NO PROBLEM FEED THEM WITH DEXOLAC OK
