Transitioning to formula

Hey all!

My son will be 8 months soon and I am starting to feel like it’s time to transition from breastfeeding to formula. He is extremely distracted always while eating, making feeding him on the go very difficult. He’s also gotten back in the habit of comfort nursing and nursing to sleep which we had gotten away from ( I am a teacher now home for the summer).

When/if you have made the switch, how did you go about it? Did you start with daytime feedings, nighttime? Half BM half formula?

Also, did you find it to be difficult? I’m very mentally ready to not have to worry about nursing/pumping and looking forward to help from my husband with feeding. Emotionally I’m feeling sad 😢

Any advice you could give would be great!
