To breastfeed or not to breastfeed?Still Breastfeeding? There is no reason for you to wean your baby off breastmilk unless you decide that it is best for you. Many mothers opt for a combination of breast and cup feeding, though the need for milk will tail off over the next few months as solids take up an increasing proportion of your baby's diet.

I go back to work part-time in two months and my then 5-month-old will go to a nursery. I'm breastfeeding and would like to continue do to so in the afternoons for a few more months. Is it possible to give him a bottle of formula in the morning and breastfeed in the afternoon, without expressing my milk in the morning?

My newborn is 3 weeks old. After we came home from the hospital, she became jaundiced and was re-admitted. Before that I had been attempting to breastfeed. Since she was also dehydrated, we put her on formula. I would like to breastfeed and supplement with formula but am afraid my milk is gone. Can I regain my milk supply and build it up enough to nourish my baby?

My son is 8 months old. He doesn't drink formula. The doctor advised giving him cow's milk, and he drinks 100 ml a day with great difficulty. He cries a lot and vomits frequently whenever we give him milk. He wakes up every hour during the night and my wife breastfeeds him. Could you give us some advice on how to overcome this problem?

I'm due in a few months and I have read that some plastic bottles can allow oestrogen-like compounds to leach into the milk. I am interested in using glass bottles and will be breastfeeding but have read that glass bottles are not recommended for breast milk. Why would this be?

My 4-week-old daughter seems to be gaining weight appropriately on breast milk. However, she feeds only every three to four hours, and then often only on one breast. I seem to have what I've heard called an "overactive milk supply" as the milk flows out very quickly and there's too much of it. Why doesn't my body adjust to the schedule my daughter is setting up? And also, should I wake her up more often to feed? She just won't take the breast when I try that.
