Many parents plan to introduce a bottle early in their child's life, whether they're going to use formula or expressed breastmilk. Many more find themselves going down this pathway even though they hadn't planned to. It can be difficult to find useful information to navigate the journey of mixed feeding, balancing giving formula alongside maintaining the production of breastmilk, and parents often feel unprepared and unsupported with this decision. Breastfeeding Counsellor Karen Hall has been supporting parents to feed their babies in different feeding situations for over 10 years, and draws together her experience and understanding of what parents need to know, to have a positive experience of mixed feeding.
