hello. please don't give the formula feed exclusively to tge baby. please alternate it with breasts milk. as he is of 7 weeks now. please put 5 spoons in 150 ml of water. the water should be boiled and brought to lukewarm temperature. you can give the formula feed for 5 times in a day. the feed should be given with a 2 hours interval.
from 3rd to 5th month use 6 scoops in 180 ml and give 5 times.
but please give breast milk in alternate with the formula feed.
