Just wondering whether to use cows milk or formula just for mixing up baby rice and porridge in ds' meals. He's just turned 6mo so only just started weaning and I don't really know what the hell I'm doing! Am still breastfeeding for milk feeds so although packets say to make up with 'baby's usual milk' I can't really do that... Bit of a faff to express just for the oz or 2 needed for rice, plus I can't usually squeeze much out anyway. I thought formula might be best seeing as its fortified with iron? Or is that a swizz and its better to just use full-fat cows milk? ( This is my mums opinion!) Also are all formulas similar or is there a 'best' one? I know this kind of thing is my decision but I just want to give him what's best and I don't really know what is besides continuing to bf!
