Recognition of low concentration of protein Recognition of low concentration of protein in BM lead to the use of diluted cow milkin BM lead to the use of diluted cow milk– Less mortality among infantsLess mortality among infants– But poor growthBut poor growth
To increase caloric density of diluted cow To increase caloric density of diluted cow milk, sugar or cereals were addedmilk, sugar or cereals were added– Infants lived and grewInfants lived and grew– Pediatrics became a medical specialtyPediatrics became a medical specialty– Mortality still remained high Mortality still remained high

The types of formula feedingThe types of formula feeding::
A-Complementary feeding: (each feed) breast is given 1st until it is emptied then formula is given to complete the feeding.
B- Supplementary feeding: formula is given to substitute one or more feeds.
C-Substitutive feeding: no breast feeding ,formula only.
Forms of formula:Forms of formula: Formulas come in three basic forms:
1-Ready-to-use formula no mixing or measuring required, just open and serve recycle all of the cans or bottles. Once opened, it must be used within 48 hours.
2-Liquid concentrate formula requires you to mix equal parts of water and formula, so read the instructions on the container carefully.
3-Powdered formula. is the most economical choice, and you must follow the directions exactly, but it has a one-month shelf life after the container has been opened.
Types of formulaTypes of formula
There's a formula to suit every baby's needs. 1-Cow's-milk-based formula: Most formula available 2-Soy-based formula: If the baby has trouble digesting cow's milk protein3-Lactose-free formula: If the baby is lactose-intolerant, or unable to digest lactose.The doctor may suggest this formula if the baby has colic.
4-Extensively hydrolyzed formula: In these formulas, the protein is broken down into smaller parts that are easier for the baby to digest than larger protein molecules. The baby may need a hydrolyzed formula if he has allergies or trouble absorbing nutrients. The doctor may also suggest trying a hydrolyzed formula if the baby has colic.5-Formulas for *premature and* low-birth-weight babies: These formulas often contain more calories and protein.
6-Human milk fortifier: This product is used to enrich the nutrition of breastfed babies who have special needs. Some are designed to be mixed with breast milk, and some can also be fed alternately with breast milk.7- Iron Fortification :The American Academy of Pediatrics discourages use of low-iron formulas. Proper level of iron-fortification is necessary for normal infant growth and cognitive development.
The parents should discuss this option with the baby's doctor.

“The manufacture of formulas with iron concentrations less than 4.0 mg/L should be discontinued. If these formulas continue to be made, low-iron formulas should be prominently labeled as potentially nutritionally inadequate with a warning specifying the risk of iron deficiency. These formulas should not be used to treat colic, constipation, cramps, or gastroesophageal reflux.”
