Too late to introduce breast milk?

Felicity

Little man 6 weeks old and my breasts are still leaking, heavy and sore. He has been formula fed since birth due to me being in/out of hospital and him being cared for by my Mum. I've been home 3 weeks now and confident that I won't need further hospitalisation. I wondered if it would be safe to introduce breast milk to his diet should I be able to pump a decent amount? Many thanks!
