In XXXXXXX only after 2 years
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Nido product is not infant formula. It will not meet nutritional requirements like breast milk. In XXXXXXX it can be given only after 2 years.
If you have stopped breastfeeding then nido will not be a good choice.
It is just a supplemental drink.
Nestle products are generally safe . No need to worry on that .
But in your child it is better to stick to formulas like nan2 or lactogen2 which will satisfy nutritional requirements in the absence of breast milk.
If you are worried about excess weight gain then you can cut down the number of feedings of nan2 per day .
Wishing your baby good health
