Yes, this approach is known as mixed feeding. It allows flexibility for the mother and can involve breastfeeding along with supplementing with formula or expressed breast milk using bottles.
The introduction of solid foods typically begins around six months of age. Start with single-ingredient purees, gradually introducing new foods while continuing to breastfeed or provide formula. Consult with a pediatrician for guidance on introducing solids and ensuring a balanced diet for your baby.
The best baby spoons are made from soft, flexible materials that are gentle on gums, have shallow bowls to minimize choking risk, and are sized appropriately for tiny mouths. Silicone or rubber spoons are parent favorites because they are durable and safe for babies transitioning to solids.

Most parents find 8-12 feeding bibs sufficient for daily use. Having multiple allows you to change bibs throughout the day and during laundry cycles. Consider a mix of sizes and styles so you have options as your baby grows.
Introduce feeding accessories when your baby is ready for them—nursing support items from birth if breastfeeding, bottles and sterilizers if bottle feeding, and specialized spoons and bibs around 6 months when starting solids.
Feeding accessories are practical, essential items that most parents appreciate helping with. Register for a variety of items including nursing support, bottle feeding supplies, and future solid feeding tools so you have everything ready.
