Don't worry
Just continue breast feeding and proper burping
Monitor his weight regularly
Baby takes feeding according to their appetite, so don't worry, as long as he is active and playful.
No need to give anything now
Thank you

No need for liv52,not recommended unless any liver ailments

If baby is active, playful , urination is adequate (min. 6 TIMES A day) and growth is adequate, you need to bother about appetite.
NEOPEPTINE may be given.
