Formula milk
My preterm baby was born on 33 weeks 5days. Her birth weight was 1.786 kgs and now she is 5 weeks old with weight over 2.5 kgs. Due to my low milk suppy and her latching issues she was on formula - nestle prenan. Now While both of us are trying hard to transition from bottle fed formula to breastfeeding , which formula should we move next to, considering she is over 2.5 kgs now?

You can try Nan pro or Nan pro Excella. I would advise you to ditch the bottle as this would hinder with breastfeeding due to nipple confusion. If you are not keen on breastfeeding it's ok, but bottle feeding will increase chances of infections, diarrhea, recurrent respiratory infections and also habit formation.
