Breastfeeding and Formula Feeding
I know many mothers breastfeed and formula feed at the same time, but my question is it ok to do that or is it better if you do one or the other instead of both at the same time?
For example, breasfeeding at certain times of the day and formula feeding at other times of the day.
@mijita can you help?

If you can just stick to breastfeeding and pumping you should be able to build a supply..enough so you don't have to use formula
You can always pump prior to returning to work to establish an abundance and have your LO's caretaker give BM in a bottle. If your employer employs 40+ employees then they have to provide BF accommodations for mothers, which will allow you to pump at work to maintain supply.
I may breastfeed only until im ready to go back to work and then i'll switch to formula and stay like that.
And honestly how does it work? I know public places are supposed to have a private place for pumping and nursing mothers, but we don't have one because we don't allow kids in there to begin with, so people don't bring kids and babies around.
it doesn't hurt to try!
