Hi Good morning Dr. I have a 5 month old babba who I ahve to leave teh entire day as I am a working women. I wanted to start him with the Amul Tetrapack milk by dilluting it with water till he gets use to it inorder to avoid loose motions. Will it be safe for me to start that milk for my babba. Since I am at work teh whole day consuming teh lactogen milk becomes very expense by the weekly as weekly i have to buy a new packet . but if advised to continue then I will keep him on lactogen .
Hi, exclusive breastfeeding till the age of 6 months is a standard guideline. Since you are working woman and not possible for you to do so, you can start the child on Amur tetra pack milk. But It's absolutely not advised to dilute the milk before giving. That will affect the children nutrition and health. Also take care that you give him in clean and washed equipments as the chances of bacterial diarrhea is very high with use of packaged milk. Besides boil the milk, let it cool down and then give your child to Chat Doctor.
