INTRODUCING FORMULA TO BF BABY
« on: May 12, 2006, 21:12:54 pm »
Hello all!  Thanks for all of the advice--I have found this website very useful.  I have been BF for 12 weeks now and want to introduce a bottle of formula just once/day to start out.  Our baby has been taking 2 bottles/day of BM since I've been back to work.  I thought if I introduced formula once/day, I would only have to pump at work twice.  Any advice on how to go about doing this?  Will I be able to combo feed without my supply drying up?
