Anybody on here do combination feeding? I posted the other day about struggling with just breastfeeding and today I did a little research and found combination feeding. I’m really curious on how well it works/doesn’t work for others who have tried it

Do you mean mixing breast milk with formula? If so, yes I did that. It worked perfectly fine for me. I needed to supplement since I wasn’t pumping a lot of milk.

I did breast whenever I was with her and pumped but my supply was weak. We had to use formula too and she was totally fine with it.

My daughter did it fine. She even took her formula at room temperature. I supplemented from day one though so my daughter was used to the bottle and I also breastfed her enough the my supply never dipped. I did it for 3 years. First year was with soy formula and after that we did soy milk and breast milk.

I breastfed as well as bottle fed formula with all 3 of my kids. I did it for a long time with each baby and it worked well for us

I do and did with my last one too. From the beginning I had to supplement. I am unable to produce enough so I always breastfeed first before following up with formula. If I pump, I’ll mix it with formula until there’s enough for a feed.
