Possible? Yes. Recommended? No. You will most likely lose your supply.
How are diapers? Remember they act horrible and fussy to keep,your supply up! Plus, you are never "dry". You are constantly making milk.
if he's still hungry just keep putting baby back to breast! =] it will tell your body it needs to make more. if you use formula all day long, your body will tell itself it doesnt need to make milk since it's not being used and then you'll lose everything.
Yes, you can... but I don't recommend doing that because your milk supply is going to decrease dramatically. Been there, done that.
Quoting Rhodin:How old? Keep in mind that from a few days old to about a month and a half, they hit back-to-back growth spurts and will basically live on your boob, no matter what. However, once you make it out the other side, BFing becomes the easiest part of watching your baby. Hang in there.
Quoting CatherineA670:
He's 11 weeks old.

I do feel the need to say if you want or feel the need to use it research the risks and side effects. Google risks of formula...without the r at the end
Growth spurt! Put him to booby for as long as he wants, then burp and offer him the other side.
That's good! More information on growth spurts can be found HERE.
