we decided to give my new born baby to my brother in law, coz they have no child,and they live out of india, and they need to go back within month with the child,
now they baby is on mother's milk , but now we need the best replacement for it..we know that it will be harmful for baby, but it is also necessary for us.
So please advice my , what will be the perfect replacement of the breast feeding, and from when i should start it, so [COLOR=#009900 !important]the baby[/COLOR] will be habitual for it..and new parents will not face any type of difficulty for this..
Please advice me..

Baby formulas are the replacement. Ask your doctor s/he will tell what formula you should use. Start giving formula as soon as possible.

Komal, there are formulas available all over the world; they will not have a big problem.
An adoptive mother can also lactate, in case your sister in law wants o breast feed. They need to see a lactation consultant. Either way, dont worry, baby will have something to drink in the form of formula/ bottle milk. I suggest you start with the formula which is available at their place as soon as you can. You can try to feed at least one feed that way to see how he is coping.
