Hi! My baby girl is 5 weeks old and she is combination feeding: formula, expressed milk and direct breastfeeding. I recently changed her formula brand. Ever since, she drinks the formula but is refusing expressed breastmilk. She is still breastfeeding though but refuses expressed milk, even when freshly expressed.
