hey ladies just wondering if anyone has successfully mix fed there baby!
the reason i ask is my HV suggested it for a number of reasons,
1. jacks weight gain is quite slow, even though he feeds every 2 hours (13lb 8)
2. get him used to formula and bottles because im stopping most breast feeds at 6 months and planning to go onto formula
3. he might go longer in between feeds.
he is such a hungry baby and i asked the HV whether or not i should try him with some baby rice (he is 17 weeks old!) but she suggested mix feeding im confuddled!!
