I'm strictly breastfeeding but since i'm not working a lot i stop pumping now i am working but can't pump enough milk what do i do? what kind formula?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Formula: Formulas mimic breast milk in all categories .they have similar amount of nutrients and minerals, so choose one with 20 calories per once with added essential lipid acids that help develop babies brain. breast milk still better. good luck and happy baby for you
