Hi,
1. No need to stop breast feeding.
2. No need to switch over the Zerolac.
3. If the baby is gaining weight and passing urine 4-6 times per day, there is no need for nay sort of treatment or change of feed.
4. As I said in my previous interaction - Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting or losing weight...you need not worry. Non of these are there in your kid. So do not worry at all.
5. WHO - World Health Organization to has mentioned that exclusive breastfeeding till 6 months of life is extremely good for babies.
6. I am not able to see any stool report here in my panel. Can you kindly upload it once more and get back.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
