A. Mixed feeding is okay if you’ve reduced breastmilk supply. Formula feeds can be given upto 1 year of age, but make sure you feed the baby with formula after breastfeeding, it helps the baby in getting used to sucking and also helps in improving breastmilk supply

A. Sure thanks. just wanted to re confirm because doc has strictly said not to give formula but I didn't have any other option so started giving formula.

A. Hello mom When mother’s milk is not sufficient for baby then the best alternative of mother’s milk is formula milk. So you can continue with both mother’s milk and formula milk. Sometimes you can give mother’s milk and sometimes you can give formula milk in full day but there is no need to give anything else till baby turned six months old Happy parenting
