Pediatrician,  's  Response
thanks for your question. oh absolutely alright if you use formula feeds along wigh yours considering your work period. but you may also consider using breast pump n keeping milk in freezer. put container in hot water to mskd ot normal temperature and baby can have it in your absence. still you may use formula in case it is insufficient. well other precautions while using formula are
1. use stereliser to sterile bottles or feeding vessels.
2. or boil for 10 minutes
3. make sure about dilution.
