I’m about to start combo feeding. I have a question about formula, what water do you use? Any brand is good? And also do y’all boil the water first and then let it cool off? That’s a lot especially if baby is hungry no?
i used distilled water, which is recommended because it’s packaged already boiled water. next best thing is purified water, which we drink every day. I started by using bottles with a few ounces of breast milk and one ounce of formula, and we gradually decreased the amount of breast milk and increased the formula. ( my supply dropped really bad and i was worried about her gaining enough weight so i only strictly BF for 3 months , now we combo feed. I suggest kendamil, it’s super super similar to breast milk (i’ve tried it) makes for an easy transition. if you don’t believe me try tasting similac or enfamil lol
I use organic Kendamil with purified water and use the bottle warmer to heat it up
I only use formula when I go out, I stressed too much about my supply it caused a decrease... I pump at home and feed mostly breast milk
