Before you start bottle feeding your newborn there are a few basic items you need to get going. Babies tend to have around 6 feeds a day, so it’s worth having enough equipment for these feeds to allow time for sterilising. You don’t want to keep a hungry baby waiting!Do not add extra powder or water to make the feeds stronger or weaker and do not press powder into scoop. Using too much or too little powder can make your baby ill. This table is a guide only; your baby may need more or less than the volumes stated. If you require more advice, consult your healthcare professional. Remember to feed your baby on demand.

This is an emotional decision as well as a biological one. You need to balance the needs of you and your baby when making this decision. Introducing formula or even partial bottle-feeding may reduce the supply of breast milk which is biologically difficult to reverse.
