Hi! Unusual circumstances hoping for advice on reintroducing human milk to 9 week old.
Background: I was diagnosed with breast cancer while pregnant and had to start chemo at 24 weeks and resumed shortly after delivering. I had donor milk provided by hospital right after. And was lucky enough to have a cousin in law donate milk to us thAt lasted from 0-3 weeks than slowly weaned to Gerber gentle so was totally on formula by 5weeks. Yay. Now have 200 oz from same lovely lady. Wondering best way to reintroduce. I was thinking just do one feed a day to make stash last longer he is up to 5 oz per feed . Is formula and breast milk volume equal ? Or should I plan to thaw more/less each day ?
Thanks ladies
