There is no problem that I've heard of doing both.

Right at the beginning, for the first 6 weeks or so, you need to use the boob (lol) as much as possible to establish breastfeeding. After that, you can switch back and forth. It's easier to get milk out of the bottle, so if your baby gets used to that, its harder to get them to take the breast.

A lot of working moms bottle & breast feed. How else would the baby eat. Lol, its ur choice of how u wanna feed..... I'm pumping/ no breast for these babies

. At the beginning it was hard for me to just whip it out and feed her in front of people so i would pump and give her a bottle. It was also nice because then other people could feed her and i didn't have to feel like a milk cow all the time lol.

Ok thanks for the info I'm investing in brest flow bottles so that my baby has a nipple like experience with the bottle n it won't b too much different from the brest.
