Loose motions
My baby is 10 day old and is having watery explosive poop 3-4 times a day. I am breast feeding the baby but the baby cries even after having breast feed, so have to give her formula milk. Is the watery motion due to both breast feed and formula milk. Can I give both simultaneously or not. Also the baby is on beneficiale 6 drops bid and VI-Syneral-zinc 6 drops twice daily and celbone 2.5 ml twice daily. Kindly help

If on your breastmilk baby passes urine every 3-4 hours and sleeps for around 30 min, there is no need of formula feeding. The pattern of poop is normal for this age, don't worry. Give only one out of beneficiale or syneral-zinc drops, both are multivitamins. Continue celbone.
Next Steps
avoid bottle feeding, use katori/spoon or paladai
Health Tips
if you have adequate milk output Express it and feed it after breastfeeding with clean katori and spoon or paladai.
