DD got breastmilk for about 15 months and DS gets mostly breastmilk too, but formula's such a lifesaver when I'm dead tired and too lazy to pump/nurse.

I did as a supplement until we had the great puking incident of 2012 about 2 weeks ago! The smell of it makes me gag now!

I dont love it, but it does come in handy. I add it to her bottles of breastmilk. The premixed liquid she got at the hospital is way better than the powder. I hate mixing powder formula

I started supplementing with 1 formula bottle a day around 9 months because I wanted to stretch my frozen breastmilk for as long as possible. So convenient!

@Mrsbells: I hate powder too. I've tried the ready to feed and it tastes so much better.
I know DS doesn't care and will take the powder, but I can't get myself to give it to him.

Love it! Allowed us to keep breastfeeding honestly. Having formula ASA back up allowed me to relax and start to enjoy our breastfeeding relationship

I have a love-hate relationship with it since I was very unhappy that I wasn't able to breastfeed. However, these days I mostly love it. I'm back at work in a rather demanding job, and I don't know how I would have made pumping work and still been able to do my job. Also, it is pretty awesome that DH can feed DD, so she's not 100% tied to me. It does make me a bit sad though b/c she's turning into such a daddy's girl. I think we would probably have a stronger connection if I was doing all of her feedings still.
