Hi...If the milk is not enough you are justified in giving him top feeding + Breast feeding. moreover he is growing well and I compliment you for that. You can give Dexolac or Dexolac Special Care as he is a preterm baby. But make sure you are diluting it properly. Any human milk substitute should be diluted at 1 unheaped scoop per 30ml of boiled and cooled water.
