Watery BM?

Danicali · August 2014

So I have been giving formula during the day and then pumping around 6pm and 1130pm. And breastfeeding during the night. I'm trying to slowly wean off the boob (which I guess I have for him other than MOTN, just not for my boobs) anyways - I pumped tonight and it was pretty watery looking. I've read that this is just because my boob was so full so it's mostly foremilk. Question is- can I still feed this to my LO? When I've been giving BM in a bottle it's usually about 3oz BM mixed with 4oz formula. Would the formula help so that I'm not just giving him all foremilk? I don't want to throw it out..

I realize this title makes it sound like it could be about diarrhea. Hope this didn't disappoint! Haha

What @mcncheese‌ said. I've had several pumpings from the same day range in color.

I would still give it. As PPs have said, my BM varies throughout the day as I pump as well.

I did go until I wasn't spraying anymore. I left it in the fridge to check it out once it separated. It did have cream ontop. So I mixed it in with my formula! But thanks! I've just never seen it look like that.
