How do I supplement BM

I'm no longer making enough milk for DS so I need to start supplementing, and eventually switching over to formula. Chat Icon Do I mix formula and BM 50/50 in each bottle? Or do I alternate a BM bottle, then a formula bottle?

Re: How do I supplement BM

I keep BM and formula seperate because if DS doesn't finish a BM bottle I can refrigerate it and save it for the next feeding (not wasting an ounce of "liquid gold!") but if it's mixed with formuila and not eaten it has to get tossed...

Seperate. Formula gets nasty after an hr or so compared to BM. I agree w Melissa dont mix. I sup a couple times & made mistake of mixing both & ended up tossing precious "gold" :(.

Your supply decreased while pumping?
