The quantity of milk to be taken depends on the babies weight. Babies require approximately 100ml per kg per day. So check your babies weight, then express about 100ml for each kg everyday. Then divide the total quantity expressed into portions to be fed every 3hours.

Yes you can. However it is best to introduce new foods to your child one at a time so if child has an allergic reaction you can easily know which food the child is reacting to. In your case you may introduce crayfish for a some days, if no reaction then you introduce groundnuts and so on. If baby has no adverse reaction then you can mix all and give at once.

We are advocates of exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life and if for any reason a mother is not able to give formula. Do not introduce cereals just because you have resumed work. You can actually express the breast milk and store appropriately for your baby to be fed with while your are at work.
