As someone who believes COMPLETELY in nature.. I don't condone the use of

formula. But no.. it's NOT a good idea to switch back and forth. Their bodies

have a difficult time as it is processing formula without going back and

forth.. it can cause ill effects to their digestive systems.

 

 

A work in progress...

Bruce, and Amy,

 

I highly doubt that a breastfeeding group will be able to give any info

regarding formula feeding. I for one, wouldn't even have a clue what the water

to formula ratio would be to even mix up a bottle in the first place. In fact,

posting a comment about formula on a breastfeeding forum if highly likely to

receive some very negative and not helpful feedback. Maybe try www.

babycenter.com or something with a mainstream forum. Bruce, I do think you

meant well though. Amy, I apologize for not attempting to offer you another

place to look along with my comment.
