formula vs breastmilk & poop

Unfortunately the time has come where I am now unable to produce enough breastmilk to feed LO for an entire day. I am an EPer and I will continue to pump for as long as I continue to produce milk so she will still be getting mostly breastmilk. At this point I think I only need to supplement for one bottle a day. Any CD mamas out there that can inform me on what formula poop is like and if I will need to do anything differently for LO's diapers?

TIA

    I swapped LO over to formula when she came home from the hospital. To be honest, I didn't notice a change in her stools. They looked the same to me as they did when she was taking BM.

    I was in the same situation as you two months ago ... EPer having to supplement.  Now DS is almost 6 months old and is exclusively FF.  I did notice a visual difference in his poop when we added formula, but it all still comes clean in the wash.  I haven't had to change anything with our CD routine.  Of course, we're starting solids next week, and that will be another issue entirely!

    DD was EFF. I just tossed her diapers in the wash.

    Formula poo comes out in the wash the same as BM poo
    If the house ain't burned down and the baby's fed it was a successful day. Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
