Can you make a formula bottle with breast milk instead of water?

Question

I'll call his dr. If no one knows but I need this little man to let me get some sleep at night. So I am considering making his bedtime bottle part formula. He nurses and takes bottles of pumped breast milk, so no worries there but I am not sure if mixing the 2 is ok or not. Any advice? ?

Answer

I make my son's nightly bottle with 2-3 oz of breast milk and add the correct amount of powdered formula for 2oz of water. Basically I sub the water for breast milk. The dr loved that idea because the only reason I'm adding formula is because he needs calories to help gain weight.
