Hi!
Welcome to HCM!
I appreciate your concern, the age of your baby is not mentioned!
The composition of Lactogen 1 & 2 are different to suit the needs of the baby.
Lactogen 2 can be started only after completion of 6 months.
You can start fruit juices , rice paste and cerelac after 6 months.
However, in my opinion breast milk is the best nutrition for your baby as it contains all the necessary nutrients required for the normal growth and development.
Hope I tried to explain you in brief about the query.
