Pediatrician 's  Response
Thanks for putting your query on HealthCareMagic. Rather than going for these formula preparations, you can opt for home made preparations made by boiling together rice, pulses and vegetables and mashing the entire thing into a semisolid pulp. You can add some amount of salt but avoid spices. You can include boiled chicken, boiled fruits like apples and similar things after getting it mashed in a mixer-grinder. These would increase the nutritive value beyond that of the supplements you are providing. I hope including green leafy vegetables will increase the fibre content and hence improve the stool. Continue the breast feeding or milk substitution alongside meals with the semi solid diet I have mentioned. I am therefore not mentioning the reconstitution details that you have asked for.

Hope that would solve your problem. Feel free to revert back in case of further queries if any.
