Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Breast milk is best milk for all babies.
If you are unable to feed breast milk due to any reason you may give formula feed suplimentary to breast milk or even exclusively.
Nan will not cause any harm except some minor problems like solid and pale stools.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
