Struggling with low supply, unsure when to supplement, or wondering if formula will derail your breastfeeding goals?

In this episode, I’m joined by Jaimie Zaki—nurse, doula, mum of five, and IBCLC—for a conversation about supplementing with formula while breastfeeding.

We explore how to use formula as a supportive tool (not a failure), how to advocate for your feeding goals in the hospital, and Jaimie’s SMART method for confident, informed supplementation.

Whether you're exclusively breastfeeding, combo-feeding, or somewhere in between—this is a must-listen for any parent navigating early feeding decisions.

What We Cover:

  • Myths around formula and breastfeeding
  • How early formula use in hospitals can impact breastfeeding outcomes
  • Why preparation for breastfeeding should start before birth
  • Red flags to look out for before introducing formula
  • The SMART supplementing method:
    • Supplementing method (bottle, cup, tube, etc.)
    • Measured amount
    • A clear reason
    • Right formula choice
    • Timing of feeds
  • Understanding oral dysfunction, fussiness, and supply issues
  • How to find trustworthy breastfeeding support (even if you're rural)
  • Why birth interventions can influence early feeding—and what to do about it
  • The emotional side of feeding choices and letting go of guilt
