Question

Why does my two-month-old son suddenly refuse to drink formula milk? He cries every time he tries, but my breast milk is not enough.

Answer

The issue you’re describing might be due to postpartum lactation deficiency, which could be related to low hormone levels and underdeveloped mammary glands, or it may be associated with malnutrition. I suggest you try boiling Wangbuluxingzi, Chuan-shan-jia, and Loulu with pork feet or crucian carp. This traditional dietary method is believed to help increase milk supply. Generally, starting from four months old, in addition to breast milk or formula milk, babies should gradually introduce vegetables puree, apple puree, and banana puree as complementary foods.
