Hi,
Baby iscombi fed. Some BFing, some expressed milk, some formula.
I've recently began to combine my milk & formula (safely, handled correctly and with the right timing that it's thrown out based as it it were full formula). I used to feed the baby from two bottles sequentially but now just combine into 1 bottle for actually feeding.
Anyway.
I've noticed that if I have a bottle of formula (say 90ml), and put in another 90ml of my milk.. it de foams instantly. I'm sad so I've done experiments and it even happens at a different ratio of say, 90ml formula with just 20ml of my milk.
It happens when the expressed milk is same day fresh or 3 days old so can't be age/vitality.
No one has mentioned this before! We've managed to ditch the colic infacol when I do this, it's not needed.
Do I have weird milk, why hasn't anyone suggested it before e.g. health visitor?
Does this happen with other people?!
