Hi Dr I am unable to feed my baby properly since his birth due to nipple eczema. .It is really painful when he sucks. .so started giving lactogen1 from the very beginning..as the days passes my nipple is becoming much worse...so use of lactogen1 has increased and breastfeeding is reduced to 1 time per day that too by pumping .so please tell me the giving lactogen1 for 2 month baby causes any problem and also please tell me how many times per day lactogen1 can be feeded to 2 month old baby...
Breastfeeding is best for baby. Get your eczema cured and start feeding. Lactose 1 can be used as substitute but only when used properly. Prepare the milk by adding 30ml water to I scoop of the powder, maintain this ratio when preparing milk. Try to feed with cup spoon, as the nipple of the bottle are notorious to cause infection. If bottle is used boil the nipple after every feed. Lastly always discard any leftover milk... you can give Lactose as many times as you want only depending on the demand of the baby.
