question I'm breast feeding well trying to but I'm also bottle feeding because it's hard keeping up with him when my milk is still trying to come in ish but if I want to switch him from one formula to the other for example Similac to Enfamil how would I go about doing this safely?

You know, the more you supplement with formula, the less milk you'll produce because your body doesn't know it's still needing to produce milk. Anyway, I wish I had an answer for you. I remember trying to switch my first son's formula didn't work too well- he got really gassy so I switched back to the similac. I would say prepare for a couple days of an upset stomach but it shouldn't be too difficult to do unless your kiddo has an allergy or something. Best of luck momma!

there's a risk to just switching them? cause I did with my daughter and she was fine I didn't know there's a Way to do it safely

Yeah if you want your supply to build you need to put baby on breast as much as possible, don't worry about if it's enough because it is baby's have tiny tummies. I think you just switch it next time you make a bottle and it might make them gassy or constipated so be ready

If you would like to switch the formula you just switch it no problem with switching them out

Oh I put him to breast as much as I can and pump when I can't but I also give him a bottle or two because the hospital started doing that until I was able to pump then they would flip flop between my breast milk and formula and the only reason I asked about switching formulas is because the hospital gave us ready to go bottles that are Similac but we are running out but we have a full can of Enfamil so I wanted to know if when we run out of ready to go bottles is using the Enfamil to make bottles when I need to if it would be a problem, I mean I expect a little gassiness and possible constipation but I didn't know if there was any major harm in doing so, we are broke so I can't just go out and buy more ready to go bottles when we run out @kimberlyyyy @mylittlejulyprincess @2novbabies @reaganmommy2015
