Thinking of changing to formula!

[tone]

I've posted a few times about Callum being fussy at the breast, and i just waited it out to see if it got better but he just doesnt seem happy from my milk! He crys quite a lot and i think its because hes not having enough milk.
I've started giving a bottle just before bed and he sleeps right through the night and seems so much happier after having it, than he does the breast!
He never seems fully satisfied after breast milk but after a bottle he does!
I was thinking of giving him bottles throughout the day and BF'ing in the night if he needs it and in the morning! Would this work? Id feel happier knowing he was happy and full, but i still want him 2 have some breast milk! But i wasnt sure if my supply would dry up or something!? xxxx

Have you tried expressing your milk and giving it to him in a bottle? I did this and my LO seemed to be more content this way. Eventually though I did move onto formula during the day and BF during the night and once she was sleeping through I just BF first thing and she had formula the rest of the day. I did this until she was just over 9 months.

I you start giving formula your body will adjust over time so that the milk only builds up for the times that you BF.
