I have a 10 month DS and I'm about to go back to work. He's breastfed on demand so I'm slightly panicking about leaving him, but I'm hoping he will adjust and feed lots during the time I'm home (I'll only be doing 3 days a week for the first month).
I plan to try and express while at work and take the milk home to (ideally) take to nursery the next day. I have about a 45 minute commute on the way home so was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of how to keep the milk cool on the way home. Work will provide a fridge, but I don't want the milk spoiling on the way home. Would also be useful if I could find something that is discreet for storage in work fridge - don't really want to be putting a bottle in there (I don't know why!)
Also, would I be able to freeze milk once at home? Or would that not be OK since it would have been in a fridge for 4/5 hours at work?
Thanks in advance for any help!
