Hi Please keep giving breast milk till 6 month and also her weight is less as she was born before time so please ask doctor for multivitamins if required to help in weight gain. If she is an active baby just wait till weaning and start formula milk along with your expressed milk. If you feel she gets hungry now and your milk is not enough then also you can start similac 1.There is no calculation for amount of feed it depends on child's hunger and activity level. 6 times At least a child takes feed.

Hello, Exclusively breastfeeding will help her tremendously in cognitive response.Premature babies usually have delayed milestones and upto an age they are slow learners.She should be ok once she reaches a certain age.Her birth day is considered her actual age.
