I do mixed feeding too but I use breast pumps to express the milk. I used to give all the milk I could express at one time and then top up with formula but noticed lately that he can get fussy sometimes when I change during one feeding so I express enough for one feeding over 2 pumping sessions and give full feed of breastmilk at one feeding and full formula on next.
hiya i do mixed feeding. I started doing 20 minutes on breast then topping up with formula now I do breast feeding in morning pump at night to give them a bottle and bottle feed the rest of the day. It was too much out and about trying to work it all out. Xxx
