Help! LO rejecting formula

Soap1Soap1 member
in Babies: 3 - 6 Months

I have been EPing since LO was 2 weeks old and have decided to hang up the horns.  I quit taking my supplements and my supply has tanked... def not enough to keep him full all day.

I tried formula for the first time tonight and he was NOT having any of it!  Any tips for getting him to take formula?  Should I mix it 1/2 and 1/2 with BM at first?

    Yes... even try 1/4 of BM with 3/4 formula. We did this by freezing and storing my BM and gradually going from BM to FF. It too us about 4-6 week gradual change so by using 1/4 it allowed us to stretch the supply I had longer. They can still taste a bit of the sweetness from what I understand through the formula. GL!

    What kind of formula are you trying? LO didn't like the first couple that we tried, but he likes Good Start Gentle Plus. We give him 2 bottles of that and 4 of breast milk a day. It has given me a great break!
