A member asked:

Good day, my baby is a month old today. im currently breastfeeding but would like to know if i give bottle now once in a while, if this might confuse her or have any complications? should i still wait a while or is it safe to introduce it?

Baby should be ok: Milk-based baby formula (any major brand) sounds fine, if Mom does not have enough breast milk. Bottled breast milk is fine too, such as if Mom needs to sleep through one feeding every night and have Dad warm up stored breast milk in a baby bottle. Babies at age 1 month who have been growing well while breastfeeding should not get too confused if a bottle is added. Babies adapt well by then
