My baby is 10 days old. Supplementing breastmilk with formula because milk supply is low. We first stuck to 2 hourly feeds, 40ml. Now he drinks breastmilk and 45ml formula and sleeps more than 2 hrs. Is it okay to feed every 3 hours?

A. Hello mom it’s not at all an issue as formula milk is quite feeling enough for the baby , if the baby normal and sleeping peacefully And gaining weight gradually then do not worry
