I have been thinking about weaning my 4 month old daugther. She is getting formula and Breast milk?

Hi,I did the following:

I have been thinking about weaning my 4 month old daugther. She is getting formula and Breast milk?My daughter was put in the hosptial for GERD which in english is known as acid reflux. I was told that I had to measure her feedings. I was only breastfeeding her and she had only had a bottle a few times if needed. Then when she went in they said no more breastfeeding that I had to pump every three hours and supplement with formula for the rest of the feeding. She is going to be 4 months in two weeks and I had planned on weaning her then. I am only able to get 2 ounces of breast milk at every feeding I think it should be more then that. I have been drinking lots of fluids and nothing seems to be helping.

Would it be ok since she is already getting more formula to just wean her off of the breast milk?

-Common Sense
Yes, it is OK to wean her completely..
However..
The longer she is on breast milk, the better off she will be.

Yes, that should be fine, since she is getting formula then she is getting all the supplement that she needs. You breastfed her this long which is great. You might want to ask her Dr first just to be sure how to do it since she has had trouble with GERD.
Good luck

Yes, thats completely fine. Formula is very nutritious these days, and you wont have to worry about her not getting her calories and vitamins.
