How did you mommas supplement formula with breastmilk? I've read online it's better to replace a feeding with a formula bottle then keep replacing more and more feedings with formula each day. I would like to know your input because I am supplementing starting tonight!

Thank you ladies :) I replaced one of his feedings lastnight with a bottle of formula, I started out with 2 oz and he drank it all and got upset when he finished it so I breastfed after burping him. I'm glad he doesn't mind the formula because I am drying up today due to getting my second major infection (mastitis) from a clogged milk duct. I get put on my ass when this happens :/

If the baby hates the formula, you can pump and put in a little formula to help get them used to the taste slowly also
