I need advice on transitioning my baby to formula.

I've been breastfeeding her since she was born and she's 10 months now. I'm pretty sure my milk is drying up because she's constantly hungry! My doctor told me I can start giving her cow milk but I want to slowly introduce her to formula before cow milk. Any advice on to what formula to give her? And should I do like half formula half breast milk?

@j.desantiag09, awe well gl!pumping usually helps increase ur supply so it makes as much as baby needs. But if ur trying to wean her off the nipple then yea makes sense! Just keep a log of how much formula and when u feed her in case she has allergies or anything change in her bowels

@elysiansmama, thank you! I bought a transitional formula from similac but I haven't given it to her yet. I pump at work but I just went through all my milk so fast!

Don't give dairy formula. Give soy formula and transition to a milk other than dairy.

I supplement but since she was born due to jaundice. My guess would be to make sure she doesn't have allergies and then try a sensitive formula, I use nutramigen, it's a good formula. But I think using bm would always be your best bet. Have u considered pumping?
