My baby is a week old today. I started breastfeeding. Milk wasn't in yet and I got sores and it hurt too bad so I switched to formula. She's been on formula for 4 days now, but my milk is in. I pumped 2.5oz which is usually how much formula she drinks.... would it be too late to give breastfeeding one more try? Would it hurt her belly?

No not at all. try to latch her on, the more you latch her the more milk you'll make. breastfeeding is suppply and demand. the more she eats the mote milk you'll make! good luck.

@chelseaepley, thanks! I was kind of worried that the breast then formula for 4 days then switching back again would be too much for her.

breast milk won't hurt her tummy at all. If you do switch back to formula after breast, she may have some trouble but not for long
