Question
The baby is 47 days old, and the breast milk supply is insufficient. They have been fed a mix of breast milk and formula milk all along. Now, I want to inquire if it’s possible to switch to a different brand of formula milk.
Answer
Under the condition that the feeding method remains unchanged, you can gradually switch to a different brand of formula milk. It is recommended to gradually reduce the original brand of formula milk while increasing the new brand, observing whether the baby adapts. Additionally, pay attention to the brand and ingredients of the new formula milk to ensure it suits the baby’s age and nutritional needs. If the baby does not show any adverse reactions, such as indigestion or allergies, then continuing with the new brand of formula milk is feasible.
