My nurse practitioner told me that since Elyse seems to be gaining well and is no longer sitting below the 10th percentile that she is comfortable giving me the go-ahead to start introducing homo milk (before she had advised me to give her as much formula as possible.. so I guess it has been fattening her up a bit )... she said of course still give her the same bottles but she could have homo milk with her meals as a drink or her cereal could be mixed with it now..
Is this really okay?
She gave me a sample menu that included 4 6-8oz bottles (which is what she is having now) and then 2-3oz homo milk as a drink with meals (instead of juice/water... she normally has water with her meals). She also told me since she does well with a sippy cup to not bother putting homo milk in a bottle, just give it in the cup so she doesn't decide she likes her milk bottles better than formula bottles..
