[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s fine to combo feed in the early days, and still go on to EBF. Nipple confusion isn’t a thing, as long as you always use slow flow newborn nipples for a breastfed baby (even when they’re much older.) You just don’t want a bottle that is faster/easier than nursing. My first struggled with milk transfer as a newborn, but had more energy to nurse once we started supplementing with a bottle. And one bottle overnight means you get a four hour stretch of sleep while your partner bottle feeds. Whether you use formula or expressed milk for that bottle really won’t matter in the long run, but just know that a bottle can help set you up for success with breastfeeding. [/quote] +1 I combo fed in the first week and then EBF for the rest of the time. Also get a LC that does a home visit, it made all the difference.[/quote]
