General & Family Physician 's  Response
rule out milk allergy or lactose intolerance
both Nan pro and lactogen are same just brands and price difference
if you can afford then Nan pro after ruling out any intolerance
child is 2 months?
if you are giving your feed, make sure you drink plenty of fluids and water
warm water
rub a mixture of Asfoetida powder with warm. water or ghee gently around belly button
consult doctor
get physically examined
continue mother feed
make sure baby latches properly
ingesting air while milking if not latches properly may be a cause
Make baby lie on stomach if he has achieved that milestone
pouring little drop of castor oil in between hip helps soften stool
