I am returning to work full time in January , DD3 will be just over 7 months old and is BLW. I am using some annual leave in January so for first month will only be doing 3 days a week. DD still has a couple of feeds during the day though, my mum is going to be looking after her I will be expressing at work, should I express around the times that DD would have her feed? That would be just before lunch and then mid afternoon. Problem is how do I take breastpump to work to keep it sterile, I have an avent manual pump. Then after I've used it the first time I should sterilise it again before using it mid afternoon? I can't really take my microwave steriliser too! I can just see me turning up at work with shed loads of stuff! It's not really feasible either, I am a nurse manager of a mental health secure unit, so very limited as to what I can take into work.
Please could you share your experiences, what works for you, and if you've had a similar experience and what to do about the sterilising.
Many thanks in anticipation.
