Any mommies breast feed and formula feed their babies? How do you go about doing so? How are your babies handling it?
@mrsclellan, it took her like a few days to get use to. She didn't poop all day when we started but other than that she's been doing great. It doesn't upset her belly nothing. We also got sensitive to start with cause we didn't know what kind to get lol
& it doesn't seem to upset her belly at all? @ang20 that's awesome! I was thinking of doing the same kind of thing, I was just worried about it upsetting my daughters belly.
@mrsclellan, depends on how much breast milk I can pump, I'm 10 days pp an haven't pumped a lot out 😕 so if I'm out an about or don't have enough time to warm up the breast milk I give her formula but if I have time to warm it up before she gets mad I give her the breast milk. But I try to do atleast 1-2 bottles of breast milk a day. That way she gets the nutrition from it
@mrsclellan, I do both with my lil girl. I pump an give formula an she does great with both
I would say he gets more formula than breastmilk. My supply dropped once I got on birth control (Nexplanon) which wasn't supposed to affect my supply, but it did. I started supplementing and it was down the slippery slope from there. It's discouraging, but baby has to eat. My boyfriend thinks I can just magically produce more milk if I wanted to.
I do and I give my babies more formula than breast milk I do breast milk first if they're still hungry once all the breast milk is gone I do formula @mrsclellan
So do you not give him formula very often? Or do you give him more formula than breast milk? @mommytoabel
@mrsclellan, no problem 😊
