Just had my baby couple days ago started formula feeding now thinking of breastfeeding can I switch ? Or do both?
Absolutely you can switch. Latch baby on often to get your milk to come in

You can switch or if you want you can do botb
So long as you’re producing, both are options
As long as baby will take the boob again
Lots of people combo feed. Every drop of breast milk counts. Do what is best for you.

U can do both if u wish…also allows u to let other people feed and care for baby while u do anything else lol. My fav was a nice long hot shower while daddy fed baby. (Or grandma…or auntie…or my bestie) u could start pumping as well…see how much you get and that way she gets more breast milk. Up to you mama.
Being in the medical field you can do both , breast milk has more nutrients for the growing baby
Don’t wait, just do it! I decided to exclusively pump with my 2nd born, it was going a lot better than I had initially thought it would, but 2 months into it I really wished I would’ve just breastfed. My kids’ pediatrician at the time was also a lactation consultant so she helped to try and get her to transition from bottle to breast, but it just seemed to stress my sweet baby out unfortunately so I didn’t push it for too long.
You can switch or do both. Whatever works for you
