May add : You may add sugar free flavoring to the formula, but usually this is not needed. Keep offering the formula, followed three times daily by introduction of non-cow's milk based solids. Your PCP will monitor the growth and development with the new formula. Usually a weight check one month after the start of the formula at this age is advisable.
