Yes, I formula fed my baby up until 6 months. However a bit different than you, when my sister had a baby in April, she strictly pumps, and always gets a lot of milk so started giving me some of it for my daughter. I haven't seen any problems since I started feeding her both, I'm sure it's even better than strictly feeding formula because breast milk has all the good stuff formula doesn't.

Also when my baby was in the nicu the nurses said that even tho she was only eating formula that I give her whatever breast milk I can pump out because it's better for the baby. They encouraged feeding her both and never said it would cause any problems by doing so.

Yes, I'm doing both and breastfeeding too, I'm not making enough on my own (tried everything, hormonal issue they think)

Yes but you'll have to make sure you pump very regularly to keep your supply up.

My sister tried it and it did more harm than good.
