Can the baby eat different in the morning and evening?

Patient's question:

My baby is 1 year and 8 months old. Can I give her formula milk in the morning and at night, and give her formula milk at noon? It's because it was a gift from a friend, and I don't want to waste it.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help clarify your question. In this situation, it is not recommended to mix breastfeeding with formula feeding. Personally, I do not advise mixing formula with breastfeeding; it's better to stick to the same formula consistently. Mixing can lead to issues like picky eating and deficiencies in your child. If you find that your child is not accepting the formula but is still eating, that's also acceptable. This advice is in response to the question, "My baby is 18 months old, can I mix breastfeeding with formula in the morning?" I hope this helps. Wishing you good health!
