General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Nothing can be compared to breast milk. Breastfeed baby for first 6 months. If you are not having enough breast milk produced, try to bteastfeed baby as much as frequently, that is best stimulus for milk secretion. If you do not get enough secretion even after that consult doctor. As baby will get breastfeeding regularly bowel movement will improve. And you are giving enema to child! without consulting doctor! I may sound harsh, but you should be more caring for God's most beautiful gift.
