A. Hello , In rare cases, a health professional might suggest that your baby needs extra nutrition from small amounts of infant formula, as well as your breastmilk. This is called mixed feeding or supplementing with formula. A baby might benefit from mixed feeding if she: has a very low birth weight (under 1500 gm)
