Brief Answer:
You can give Nanpro 1.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
For a baby of 25 days old, milk of 60 ml is not sufficient. Nanpro 1 is good for babies less than 3 months. You can continue with it.
However to increase the breast milk you need to increase your fluid intake and start with a high protein diet. Do continue direct breast feeding the baby instead of artificial breast pumping. This will also help in increasing the milk secretion.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Brief Answer:
You can continue with Nanpro I.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
If the breast feed supply is low then you can give nanpro I to the baby. Just be careful to use a freshly prepared feed and boil the bottle well. Nanpro is good for providing all nutrients to the baby. No need to worry. The baby will take feed only if he is hungry. Overfeeding is generally not seen in babies.
Hope this answer is helpful.

Brief Answer:
Skimmed milk is better after one year of age.

Detailed Answer:
Skimmed milk can be started after one year along with other semisolid food. Right now it is best to continue with nanpro 1 .
