breastfeeding to formula?

Question

Ok ladies I need help! I've EBF my little guy with the occasional breastmilk bottle when I have to be away. I know breast is best but it's time to transition to formula. I love feeding him but I need my life back! I do have a freezer stash and I know it won't last long. Can anyone tell me what kind of formula their baby's transitioned best on? And how do you go about transitioning? Just need some advice or hear someone else's story.

Answer

I do powder enfamil but daycare does similac liquid with iron. My baby does fine with both but he has been supplementing with formula almost once a day since bringing him home from the hospital. Ask your pediatrician what they recommend. I know some babies just done so well with certain types, so you might just have to try it out

Answer

We've been mixing 2oz of formula and adding 3oz of breast milk. Our guy drank it just as fast as breast milk and seems to not notice a difference. I did tons of research and went with Plum Organics Formula since it doesn't have sugar like a ton of other formulas. Also it is made locally so if there is a recall for any reason,  I'll know right away. There are so many good formula options, so you can't go wrong with whatever you chose for your baby.

Answer

We use enfamil... we were lucky our baby likes both breastmilk and formula. We like the premade liquid kindbecause it's super easy to mix 50:50 if you wish to do that
