So....
DD 7 months, EBF till 2 weeks ago (has had bottles of expressed regularly) when I started adding a ff in preparation for going back to work which I did this week.
I am already finding it a big challenge to keep feeding her, not the expressing at work part, that's going fine but probs are:
Finding time to feed her in the morning before leaving for work
She's not having much milk in the daytime, waits for me to get home at 4ish so I have been feeding her then but that's a problem as should be getting tea ready for DS
Tea is then late which means a tired hungry toddler and grouchy baby
She's then not very hungry for her solids but then wants a big milk feed at 7ish, I have found she wasn't satisfied with just bm so offered her a bottle tonight and she took 7 oz!! She's obv been going to sleep hungry which explains why she's been waking at 9pm.
Feel in such a muddle and that my supply is all over the place.... should I just give up??
Any working mums still bfing?
