Do your research. Just as you do your research on your own health and decisions for your pregnancy, etc. Breastfeeding.com has some great articles, including some breastfeeding myths! Arm yourself with information and you can't go wrong.

I typed a huge reply and it didn't go through!

Okay, to recap: please don't suppliment with formula!! You shouldn't need it at all, and it WILL have a direct effect on your breastfeeding! I can almost guarantee that! Alyvia didn't poop every day, so I don't think there's much cause for concern just yet. Poop = waste, and there isn't much waste in breastmilk. It's very possible that Nya is absorbing almost all of your milk, which is GREAT. Just keep a count of her wet diapers, and let her doctor know if she goes longer than a week without a poo. Even then, I would suggest a suppository before I'd suggest formula. She really REALLY doesn't need formula, and it will screw your breastfeeding up.
