Hi, I have 3 month old baby. Firstly can I let her have formula milk apart from breast milk? Secondly when I breast pump n try to feed her in the bottle she refuses to have from it, whether me or anyone else feeds from bottle she refuses. It becomes difficult for me especially when I urgently need to go anywhere. Please advise!

Please note: exclusive breastfeeding up to the age of 6 months is nectar for baby. No bottle feeding at all. Keep the expressed breast milk which can stored for about a week in back of refrigerator n can be fed by any body at any time to baby with spoon not bottle. No formula feed.
