Moms who use formula and boobie milk..

I plan on pumping and also using formula as well.. I was just wondering if any of you have a system? Like breast milk all day and formula for night feedings or something to that affect. I think I read that formula helps them sleep better? I dunno! Please tell me what you do. Thanks so much!

Re: Moms who use formula and boobie milk..

When i started having supply issues and wanted my milk to last I did 1/2 bm and 1/2 formula. For me that was what I felt comfortable with. I pumped more then bf, but when I had days off she bf all day except the last feed of the night and that was 1/2 bm and 1/2 Enfamil Restful formula

Re: Moms who use formula and boobie milk..

I supplement each of luce's bottles with formula.

right now, he gets 3 bottles a day when I am at work. he gets 3.5 oz bm and 2 oz formula at each feeding.

I ebf him the rest of the time.

of course, I could just do 2 bm bottles and 1 formula bottles, but I like that he is getting bm at every feeding. not sure why...it's just what I like.
