How To Wean Off An Infant From Breastfeeding?
Hi, My baby has completed 5 months 1 week. I have started giving him Lactogen 2 times a day so that I can join back to work. He does not seem to like it. I don t think its problem with the bottle because he drinks expressed breast milk without much problem. Also expressing milk with machine does not work for me. I am doing it manually which is difficult once I start going to office. Should I try some other formula?

Hello,
I think you can use manual pump. Giving him breast milk for a year is necessary for his immunity. Goat milk can be given since it is more like human breast milk.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
