How and when to transition from exclusively breastfeeding to breast and bottle feeding.
I’m wondering when and how to transition my three month old son to bottle from exclusively breastfeeding. Also how did you manage a pumping schedule in with the transition. Right now I feel like the juggle between him and the toddler and my preteen is hard to balance right now - please tell me how y’all are doing it TIA ❤️
I introduced a bottle once a day! Using paced bottle feeding and making sure the flow wasn’t too fast (to prevent bottle preference) I love the Phillips avent bottles (I found lansinoh and medela wayyyy too fast) and did one bottle a day or one every other day, usually the amount of oz is 1-1.5 per hour since last feeding. And then once he took the bottle, I would pump! We introduced at 3 weeks and it’s been going well
