Formula milk
I stay in Chandigarh & have a baby 1.5 months old. I am giving verka toned milk to my baby after consulting paediatricians here & none of them objected to toned milk. However I have read on practo that cow's milk shouldn't be given to babies. Can somebody please suggest a good formula milk? My baby is a colic baby.

Dear parents ,        Mother milk is amrit. Breast feeding is an art. Hold the baby in one arm keeping his head at elbow joint and the buttocks in the palm of same arm, do not keep baby in lap. Start feeding &hold the outer palm of baby in between the thumb &index finger, put pressure on palm when ever baby sleep or stop feeding Feed baby for 15to20minutes. After feeding put the baby on left shoulder and pat just behind stomach level for 5mintues, baby burp 3to5times. Lay down on right side of the baby putting a pillow below head maintaining that head is above level of stomach . Only sucking increases the production of milk as per demand of baby
