WCM for 11 month old

My freezer stash is nearly gone and I'm barely pumping half of what DD drinks in a day. She's 11 months tomorrow so I'm going to start to transition her to WCM. She drinks 3 4 oz bottles of BM a day now. Do I just replace those bottles with 4 oz of WCM?

    I do plan to still BF when we're together (2-3 times a day during the week, and on demand on weekends). I feel like it'd be silly to transition to formula for only a month right?

    My pump output really fell off at the end too.  LO turned 1 on a Wednesday, and I started using WCM that Monday since my stash was completely out. I just needed to give one bottle of WCM since I was still getting enough for the other two....and DC warmed it like a regular bottle and she drank it without a flinch.  Your LO is a little bit younger, but I don't think 4 oz a day when the rest is still BM would make that much of a difference.  Personally, I'd keep pumping the 1/2 you are still able to get.  GL!
