I have posted before about the problems that we have had with breastfeeding and dds ongoing problems with tongue tie.
Since Monday I have been breastfeeding, then topping up with formula and then expressing. Each feed is taking about two hours and it is exhausting.
The midwife has just visited and has suggested that dd is finding feeding from me too stressful and that I would better expressing and topping up my supply with formula.
Does anyone else do this? How do you make it work? Can you give me some idea of timings, frequency, practicalities etc?
I got some really great support and advice on here before and would appreciate any experienced mums help again.
Thanks

Does anyone express and top up rather than breast feed?
