Baby with reflux, can't feed due to forgetting to give her medicine .

Yes you can mix together, no problem, but... and it's a big but.... she might hate the taste of the mixed up stuff and reject it all! best do as whittywan suggests and keep separate. Least then you don't waste good BM or expensive formula!

Thanks everyone. Yip, she absolutely hated the taste of the formula and refused the bottle and I stupidly mixed it half and half so had to bin the lot. Luckily I had 100mls Id forgotten about in back of freezer. Something tells me I will be up alot tonight!
