Question

Is there any issue with a baby eating breast milk first and then formula milk? Do they need to go to the hospital for treatment? How long will it take to see improvement after treatment?

Answer

Based on the baby’s condition, feeding breast milk first and then supplementing with formula milk should not pose any major problems, and it is recommended to maintain the current feeding pattern. If the baby experiences drier stools after adding formula milk, consider giving a small amount of fruit, such as a soft apple, using a spoon to scrape the flesh and feed it. Approximately half an apple per day can help improve stool texture, making it softer.
