Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am assuming you are asking for formula milk for a four-month-old baby. The best thing will be to continue breastfeeding until six months of age. Give breastfeeding as a priority. For overall development, no formula feed can replace it. Every child is different. So, formula milk cannot be the best. It usually is a trial.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards.
