Hi Doctor,I have recently switched from nan pro 1 to aavin milk blue packet now my son is having fever for three days ,I had pre trem delivery symptoms detected so I was given steroids for lung growth of my baby ,he had short of mother s milk right from birth his doctor s adviced nan pro 1 his growth was up to mark and normal the recent switch between milk is the only change made can it cause fever.....is diluted aavin good for my baby.....
Let me mention that for a baby, mothers breast milk is the best possible food and there can be no alternatives for the same. Alvin or any other milk substitutes that are generally given, are based on cow milk and are difficult for the baby to digest, Moreno if the baby was born preterm. NAN Pro 1 has certain nutrients added and removed to make it more like human milk and hence is suited better. Diluted Alvin would be better than the normal one as the concentration of certain nutrients would be closer to human milk. Although external feeds cannot cause fever, sterility cannot often be maintained properly and hence becomes possible source of infection causing diarrhea or fever. If possible, switch back to breast milk. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended up to 6 months of age.
