Introducing formula

My baby is 100% drinking breast milk now but I am going overseas for work for 6 days and I don’t have enough supply for baby for the whole duration. I tried to introduce formula but baby refused to drink it. I’m worried she might not have enough to drink while I’m away. Anyone has experience or tips to share when transitioning from breast milk to formula? #formulaadvice #weaning

I mixed bm & formula when transitioning. Eg if 100ml, 80ml bm: 20ML fm. Then slowly increase 50:50 then full bottle. I tried S26, grow and nan, she prefers Nan.

All was samples (she started formula at 1.5 yo cause she couldn’t take fresh milk) so I just tried one by one😄. She had bad constipation taking S26 and rejected GROW. They say nan is closest to bm, colour wise, indeed closer to bm and smells less “formula”. Cheaper than S26 but still not pocket friendly 😂.
