DS is now 2 weeks old. Due to issues latching on in the first few days of his life I resorted to feeding him expressed milk from a bottle. BF is now well established thanks to the help of a nipple shield initially, but now he is flying solo. There is no issue with nipple confusion, hell happily take Either the nipple or a bottle. I'd like to maintain a supply of expressed milk in the fridge for emergencies (top up when he can't get enough from the boob, DH helping with night feeds when I'm completely exhausted etc) Can you recommend when and how I should be doing this so that I don't affect my supply and ruin the hard work DS and I have done.
Thanks!
