for my sanity I need DD2 to take one feed from a bottle. She is EBF and 14 weeks. I have been trying Expressed milk in lots of different bottles and she refuses. So SIL suggested formula to save the stress of expressing and refusal (after all that work; which is frankly demoralising).
Tried for past two days with some sucess. But she will only take 2oz of formula. Should I keep offering at the sane time each day and hope she increases volume. It's usually 2 hours after last BF. Will my supply diminish due to dropping one of approximately 8 feeds in 24 hours?
This formula has been given at lunch time but it's the late one I really want to substitute. Can I switch later once this one Is established. She seems easier to bottle feed in the afternoon at the mo.
Thanks for any words of wisdom. I really want to continue BF past six months.
