Don't feel bad at all. You are still goign to be brestfeeding, just supplementing a feeding. I do the same with my son...he gets one bottle of formula at night because I need atleast one feeding supplemented so I can pump and freeze so I have back up milk for when I travel. He will gets all the benefits of b/milk and can also take formula incase I am not around and needs to be fed. I worried in the beginning too, but realized that he is FINE and he is still breastfed majority of the time. Don't stress yourself out :)

Thanks Domino!

Don't worry about it. We can't all be superheros - even if we try! :-)

Don't feel bad! I had to supplement with my son while I was still in the hospital cause he was such a piggy. I was so sore from trying to breastfeed him in the hospital that I had to stop and start pumping for him. By the second week of being home I was pumping 10 ounces each time. Now he is a month old and just fine. I would recomend if you do have to supplement to do it at night since it is heavier and they will sleep longer. Good Luck!!!!!

Hi, don't feel bad, this happens with many moms. formula can be as good as the breast milk..

Don't feel bad. Formula is just as good as breast milk. I never breast fed at all, I used formula straight away and my daughter is healthy and rarely gets ill.

There is nothing to feel bad....Dont worry, it happens to many mom.....Good Luck

i just hope you understand supplementing will drop your milk supply. goood luck

Thanks everyone but Im just about done nursing so I dont need this question answered anymore. Thanks for all of you help!
