Milestones:Breast milk substitute
2006-12-13
Name: Kavita



I know that there is no substitute for Breast milk! So, please do not advise reg. that point.

The thing is, I am planning to adopt a baby. Mostly, we are trying for infant or less than 1 year baby.

I would like to know what are the choices I have for milk, instead of breast milk?

Good thoughts for the baby.

Closest option is formula, it is specially prepared so it is as close to bm as possible.

But ...
u will also hv to consider what the baby has been taking till then. After 2-3m age, babies get opinionated and might refuse things they dont like.

Also, if baby is 4m or more, u can add in semisolids and other such food

If u r in US/UK, BM is outsourced, so u can check it out.

hello jayashree
dont get afraid and dont loose hopes, your son is absolutely fine, and give him the proper tuition and avoid more playing periods of his, and you should teach him at home when you will get free time.... - praglabh [View Message]
