Hi
My LO is 5 months and I'm returning to work in a week. I've been giving her mixed bottles twice a day, which she takes fine then she is bfed the rest of the day. I was hoping not to have to express at work but think I'm going to have to at lunchtime and Then I will be feeding before & after work. Now I am wondering about my supply as I will be separated from her for about 10 hours a day. will pumping once be enough to keep my supply up now bfing is established? At weekends, should I bf her or keep up the bottles?
Also, she was crying for bf an hour after her bottle today- do odd feeds or extra bottle feeds affect supply anymore?
Many thanks :-) x

Forgot to say- she will be sent to the child mined with more than two bottles lol! That sounded a bit mean x
