Can anyone in a similar situation shed some light please :)
Have a 22 day old who is now waking every 60 ish mins Day and night to use me as a comforter
Me and OH thinking of introducing a formula feed before bed as a few people have said it helped with them
Thinking of doing it tonight but worried it may upset him/his stomach and make him even more unsettled?!
Thanks xxx

It was pretty normal for all four of mine to breastfeed that frequently. They are stimulating your milk supply and probably having a growth spurt. Introducing formula can effect your milk supply adversely so just be aware of that if it's something that is important to you. Congrats on you bubba Smile
