what type of formula is most compatible w/ breast milk,

There aren't any formulas that even come close to breast milk. Why do you want to supplement? Remember, the more you nurse, the more milk your body will make. Supplementing with formula will ultimately make your milk supplu dwindle down to nothing.

I had a baby in April and I want to become pregnant again right away, but I'm breastfeeding what are the chances?

Enfamil with lipil is what I use to supplement with my baby and he is not having any problems switching from breast milk and then formula. I nurse him first and then give him some formula to fill him up. I am not blessed with a lot of milk and have not been from the beginning, so I have not had a choice in supplementing, and I am trying to not make myself feel guilty for it. Babies grow from the love that they recieve and parents that do the best job that they can! Good luck.
