Probably a daft question but... Hey ho!
I'm a first time mum, due mid August, no idea besides what I've read on what to expect in the first month besides lots of bf and sleeplessness.
DH wants to book show tickets for a comedian at the end of September, so baby will be 4-6 ish weeks old. I'd love to go, it's just an evening out, but...
I plan to breastfeed, no idea how long it would be between feeds, or whether I'll be able to express at that point, or if I do start just with bf whether its enough time to get used to expressing or get the baby used to a bottle etc. I'm down with formula if needed but hoped to exclusively bf or at least bottle feed my breast milk if poss.
In your experienced mum opinions, am I going to be able to express into bottles for my mum to feed the baby for a few hours by that point / even feel up to going out at all in the first 1-2 months? (assuming my mum will happily take them for an evening)?
Don't even know if I'd even want to leave the baby at that stage but also may be in need of a date night and a good laugh??
Bearing in mind I've never done this before so please be nice!
The show starts at 8pm 😂
