A. hello. yes it is absolutely fine for the parents to feed breast milk as well as formula feed to the child. but do give a gap of at least 20 to 30 minutes before giving any of the following do not give both the milks together. also do take into consideration that the feeding bottle you use should be colic free. you can use "Babyhug" feeding bottles
