Combine Feeding advice

We are currently EBF at the moment but over the last few weeks has little one has been waking up for a feed quite a lot during the night. I haven’t slept well in ages and my nipples are so sore because of all the night feeds. I’m thinking of transitioning her night feeds to formula but am not sure how to go about that or what formula I should be looking into especially since she’s turning 1 next month. Transitioning would really help get my husband involved to help with bedtime because at the moment she only wants the boob. I’ve tried pumping but it doesn’t really work for us. Help please! Just need advice and guidance here!

Bless you, I feel your pain! I EBF until about 3 or 4 weeks ago and have since completely weaned (his choice!) We use kendamil, and my baby has absolutely no issue in taking it. I will go straight to cows milk at 1 though, rather than using toddler milk. It’s completely up to you how you split your feeds etc. what works well for one family may not work for you. I stressed about this for so long, and upon reflection, I should have just gone with the flow (I know it’s so much easier said than done!) Maybe just try babies bedtime feed tonight as formula and jump in that way? Xx

@Abbie which stage kendamil did you use if you don’t mind me asking? Xx
