Answer by Joey123321
its not bad… but its just not normal… however whos to say whats normal and whats not!
Answer by Brandi
um is she mentally challenged and doesnt realize that the stuff she is drinking is for babies and she’s a BIG GIRL? and big girls dont need baby formula! tell her to grow up!
Answer by Rebecca
Wow. Are you even serious?
Just in case you are serious, I highly doubt the formula will hurt her but she has to be eating other things as well – fruits, vegetables, grains, meat, etc. She can’t just live of formula.
That’s a pretty expensive habit she has there, huh?
Answer by ♥3 days left♥
Your daughter is CRAZY!
Tell her that she’s not a baby anymore.
Answer by baby_girl
why is she even drinking it, she needs a balanced diet with propper food, tell her to grow up and stop acting like a baby and to start acting like a 15 year old girl, why do you even allow this not like formula is cheap
Answer by celestial
If you have doubts about it being bad for her, why do you even let her drink it?
That’s gross.
You’re gross for making that up.
Answer by Ivy’s Having Twins!
I imagine there are worse things. I don’t think its bad. Expensive, but not bad. I think that comes to around 1000 calories? I’d me more worried about consuming too many calories then about getting the incorrect nutrition. It is very nutritious, and if you were to mostly consume one thing, formula is a good choice.
Actually, I think that is closer to 1900 calories, that may be too many calories for the average 15 year old.
Answer by Cadence Jade’s Mommy
Thats pretty gross and expensive but its not going to hurt her. If babies can drink it then so can adults. It just makes no sense. Why are you buying it for her?
Answer by Brian Deer
Nothing is poison – Everything is poison, its just a question of dose. I would say its not too good for you by sheer quantity. 10 bananas would be bad for you if you are eating any other potassium foods. I had 13 once and was violently sick. 10 packet of crisps (saturated fat) , 10 oranges (hard on the teeth with acid) Basically 10 of anything may have a negative effect. There are worse foods, just need to cut down.

baby milk formula–: Is it okay to supplement my healthy breastfed baby formula milk?
My baby was 9lbs 7oz at birth, he is now 6 weeks old and weighs 13lbs 7oz, he is a very healthy boy. He eats all the time, I feel drained, crabby and tired throughout the day. My baby is a happy boy, I don’t want to quit breastfeeding but would like a little more “me time”. Is it okay to supplement him with formula milk occasionally?

My doctor told me to gradually mix my breast milk with formula in order to get my son ready for my return to work. I did that for a week and he adjusted well. He did vomit and get more gas until his tummy got used to the change.
Answer by Ryan’s mom
Yes, a lot of women do this. My son was a preemie and the nurses at Children’s hospital mixed the formula and added it to the pumped breast milk to put in his feeding tube. It helped him gain weight faster. Some women have to suppliment if they are not making enough. You could also use a breast pump and freeze the extra to use in bottles. Breastmilk can be frozen for up to 6 months and thawed it can be stored in the fridge for 24 hours.
Answer by medevilqueen
You can use baby formula but I don’t think you can use formula milk because he is to young for milk. But you can’t do it that often because it can confuse him and he can get a taste for the formula rather than breast milk. You can try pumping when he sleeps and when he is not nursing so that you have that one hand instead of formula.
Answer by trish
sure it is. any breastmilk is better than none, if he will take a bottle you can give formula or even pumped milk. if you pump i recommend an electric. they are much easier than manual and battery. if you do supplement regularly it will effect your supply so be aware that if you start giving formula you will most likely need to keep giving formula and it can get expensive. if you do one bottle each day then your body will start to produce that much less. just something to keep in mind. on a side not my boy weighed that much at birth as well. he is now 7 months and weighs in at around 28 pounds. big boys are attention getters. everyone tells me he should play football. congrats on the new baby and good luck.
Answer by sugar507
Yes, I breastfed and formula fed my daughter. but you should talk to the doctor about what formula to start him off with, just in case he might be allergic to something. The two popular formulas are Similac Advance with Iron and Enfamil with Iron. If u choose to use enfamil go for the regular, not the lipil. Your baby will start to spit up everything he eats due to the xtra inggredient added.
Answer by willis_is_40
yeah you can do that.also if he still appears not to be satisfied,put a little baby cereal in the milk
Answer by jodi H
i am a mother who is still breastfeeding my 2 1/2 year old so i feel i can answer you from experiance. Yes you can supplement of course but there are some things to take in to consideration.
1- formula is harder to digest because of the cows milk so there may be some gassy issues
2- baby can get attached to bottle because milk is way easier out of a bottle less work so get nipples with flow controll and nipple shaped like your own for no nipple confusion.
3- and finally you may find that all you need to do is pump. You may be amazed how much milk you can pump in a short period of time and milk can be stored in the fridge 1 week and freezer 6 months but breast milk properties change with the baby as they grow so don’t stock too much.
I did all the above because of work but remember that it is much better to supplement a few feedings with a bottle and have a happy mom that to try too much and give up all together.
Answer by Carolyn T
At six weeks he shouldn’t be eating more than every two or three hours. This should continue till he’s about three months old and then he should be only eating every 4 or 5 hours. Waking only once at night. You don’t want to supplement with formula because it’s not as good for him and your milk production will go down. Try a Binky between feedings to keep the little guy happy! It might just be he’s not hungry at all but just needs to satisfy that sucking reflex!
Answer by amanda r
ACTUALLY SOME PEOPLE ONLY BREASTFEED FOR A SHORT TIME THEN BEGIN SWITCHING THEM TO FORMULA JUST FOR THAT REASON. OR BECAUSE THEY HAVE STUFF TO DO AND CANT ALWAYS BE THERE. OR WHAT YOU COULD DO IS PUMP SOME AND STORE IT IN A FRIDGE.THAT WAY WHEN THE BABY NEEDS TO EAT IT CAN STILL HAVE YOUR MILK EVEN IF YOU’RE NOT THERE
Answer by trivial
Of course you can. Just remember that if you aren’t feeding on demand, you’re going to need to pump during the feedings you skip.
Any amount of breast milk you can give your baby is wonderful, but he needs a happy momma too.

Hi,
Im sorry for the responses you’ve been getting. People are very quick to judge and ignorant. It’s not your daughter that warped, it’s the majority of our society.
It’s not normal to people because it’s “baby” formula. I know of a couple adults that enjoy baby food and other “strange” consumable things. I’m guessing not many people have actually tried it to know if they like it or not.
There wouldn’t be anything health wise wrong with it I would imagine because it is fed to babies. It’s probably quite nutricious. She just has an addiction to it. It’s like eating Jello powder (best example I could come up with). It’s a guilty pleasure.
I bet that most of the people who answered this question still like to chomp down on a nice juicy chunk of veal. I’d rather my kids drink the formula.
Yeah of course *eye roll*
Yes dear, we don’t want you kill yourself trying to feed him enough. It takes a while for your milk to adjust and by the time it does, he changes and it has to adjust again. I had no problem with supplementing with formula, my logic was if I was sick, or couldn’t get home or something I didnt’ want them going hungry. I had a friend who refused to do anything but breast feed, then she got a breast infection and her baby was dehydrating because he wouldn’t take a bottle, he had to be hospitalized!
Let daddy take the bottle feedings!!!!
Yes yes yes. My son is 4months and quite quite happy on a mixed breast/formula diet (has been since 5days old). Breast milk is good for the immunity and antibodies – so, providing he’s getting a little of this, there is no harm in supplementing with formula. As soon as I realised that ‘breast is best’ does NOT mean formula is bad, this helped me regain my sanity!! My partner can now also help out and feels hes bonded much better since helping with feeds. He sounds like hes growing well – so formula milk may help he stay fuller for longer. Remeber, at the end of the day, whatever advice you get – you are his mother and what works for you is what you should do.
Yes i think supplementing is not a problem at all… but i hope you can reconsider this decision because it will be such a pity to do this if you are enjoying good supply and your baby is sucking fine… I breastfed my daughter till 18 months old and i hope i could have done it even longer!! It was tiring and draining in the first 3 months but subsequently I was enjoying the whole process…. I was proud of myself for perservering!!
Pump/express your breast milk to store so that you can rest or do your things. By supplementing, your baby may develop a preference (for bottle or for formula cos sweeter) and a lot of mothers i know were forced to stop breastfeeding cos their babies eventually rejected breastmilk totally. Pls reconsider!!
And of course, mothers can loose weight faster!! breastfeeding mummies loose about 500-800 calories more everyday!!
I supplemented for the same reasons. You may want to look out for constipation but it will pass. My daughter just turned 1 last week and is super, super healthy and happy.
Absolutely! My first daughter was the same and I had to supplement her from 5 months because it felt like i had my boob in her mouth all the time! My second daughter has been exclusively breast fed and she is now 6 and a half months old. It was much easier the second time around.
My pediatrition told me that babies are not allowed to have milk until 11 and 1/2 months old. Then it should be whole milk. Their digestive system is not mature enough to handle it until then. I would switch to formula milk totally. You need to be well rested for the both of you. Be sure to sleep when he does and limit visitors.
Sure. I had to do both since I did not make enough to feed my baby. Some feedings would last for 2 hours and I felt the same as you, crabby and tired and no time for myself which is no way to live. Since it does not seem you have any issues with milk production have you thought about pumping? It should take less time for you to pump and then you can store it in the fridge/freezer so that when you have had enough you or your husband can give him a bottle? (I am due anyday with my second and plan on pumping this time since I dont have time to mess around feeding an infant for hours at a time and take care of my 2 year old daughter).
Yes, it is OK to give your child formula. You need a break so take it and don’t let anyone make you feel bad for it. You aren’t going to do anyone any good if you are crabby and tired throughout the day. You need to be happy so your baby can be happy. That’s the most important thing. Besides, babies don’t care where their food comes from as long as they get fed. Good Luck!
