Hi Moms,
I delivered my second child baby boy in May born in 36th Week. He is Low weight by birth weighed 2 KGs only. Though he has caught up now and now is around 3 Kgs since past month and few more days.
I had been breastfeeding sometime exclusively and supplimenting whenever felt like once a day with Lactogen. Has anyone is such situation ? Which brand you are using for this ?

Another now after one and half months, I have to start looking after house, my elder kid etc all.

Any tips ? Can I start cows milk or continue with infant formula. I somehow feel am not sure if I can breastfeed now as its very exhausting.My baby sleeps at the breast too. He needs to be nursed at least 40-45 mins.


Any suggestions, tips, second time moms, please share. Preeti replied. Hello dear is it possible that your sons weight will from two to six kg in a month the answer is no it will take time and please do not try such things on your child as it will not be safe and it can create problems. Pooja replied. Hello dear no need to worry so much as this is not a big issue please keep the way it is and keep breast feeding only the weight will increase as it happens with many mothers they start worrying about this but it should not be the case. Sagarika replied. Hi there this is really tricky question as at one point you are saying your child is under weight and at same time you want to try such things on him and if this goes wrong then it will be a big concern for you. Seema replied. Hi my friend the only thing you should give your son at the moment is breast feeding as that is only the right decision and nothing else will work and you should avoid giving the same. Sarita replied. Hi please do not consider giving cows milk to your infant as they might have some complications already your son is under weight then why to add more stress to it by trying this. Shivangi replied. Giving cows milk is not the solution as your child is under weight and for that you need to take good care of your child and also make sure you feed your son at regular intervals as that will only help to gain the proper weight of the child. Sangeeta replied. Hi there if you want to start the cows milk then you can but start with small portions and see whether there is any side effect to it and if not then you can start giving in proper portions. Anamika replied. Hi dear please make sure you feed your son properly as he needs extra supplement as you said that he was under weight so please take good care of your son and do not worry about your elder son. Anjali replied. Hi there do not consider giving the cows milk at this point of time just wait for few more months and start giving him in the mean time why dont you hire a maid o look after your elder son. Amaira replied. Hi dear please continue feeding your child with breast milk only as thats the only food which should be given till six months of age and nothing else and after that you can start giving him with cows milk. Aditi replied. Hi dear what are you saying please do not give cows milk to the infant as it is not good for the child right now, please continue with breast feeding only have a nice day. Anju replied. Well first of all many congratulations for the second child and its ok if the childs weight is bit on a lower side as it will increase as you said it has already so no need to worry at all in this matter. Anaida replied. Hi dear there is no other alternative as you only can take good care of your child and its only you who can feed your child properly, giving your child to a maid will also not be the good idea. Malika replied. Hi one suggestion to you please make yourself relax and take good food and also follow a good healthy diet as breast feeding needs good diet for mothers if not then start on immediate basis. Gaytri replied. Hi please dont take me wrong but how can you feed cows milk to a new born baby as it will be very difficult to digest by the baby, please do not think also to give the same. Priyanka replied. Having a baby and taking care of the baby is a big task, i can understand you being exhausted by taking care of the infant as well your other child.Please relax its not a big issue. Karuna replied. Hi had the same issue with my child so i also started giving cows mil to him and was really satisfy with the outcome as my baby became healthier after having it. Jigna replied. Hi there please speak to doctor first then give such things to your baby, please dont think that its good for your child as the doctor might have some other opinion on it. Daina replied. Hi dear so sad to hear that you feel exhausted in feeding your child its just because that you are not having adequate food please change your diet regime and things will work for you. Veena replied. Hi please take good care of your infant as this can not be taken for granted you need to understand that and make this work.
