Breast rejection may occur during these months. You should continue to breastfeed your baby patiently without getting tired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is my milk of poor quality? Is my milk not enough for my baby? Such thoughts do nothing but affect your milk negatively and make you sad. Think positive and give good messages to the universe! <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the first six months, exclusive breast milk is essential for your baby&#8217;s development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your doctor does not recommend it and does not think that it should be fed with formula, definitely do not use formula. Four months is too early to switch to solid food. We do not want to change to other food before six months.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Does_a_4-Month-Old_Baby_Suck\"><\/span>How Much Does a 4-Month-Old Baby Suck?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every baby is unique.
