Okay its been done to death but Expressing and returning to work

[katzglitterytree]

Any advice on the best way to do this?

Am going to start dd2 (6months) onto a routine tomorrow, so by the time i go back to work in Jan it should be something like this

7am - brecky with Breast Feed
10am - Bottle EBM
12 - lunch with water
2pm - bottle EBM
5pm - Dinner with water
Breast on demand after that

I will be able to express the morning bottle before work and hopefully the afternoon one at lunchtime. Does this sound reasonable?

Katz - I am in exactly the same boat. How much do you manage to express each day? (sorry if I'm asking for too much info . I only seem to find the time to express once (normally lunchtime) and I'm only getting about 3oz, which obviously won't be enough to last dd for her feeds at nursery.

Sorry - no advice, but maybe we can compare notes, as I will be starting weaning next weekend.

we've started weaning - which should make it a bit easy.

WRT to expressing i've not hd any problems getting the milk out juts getting it in DD2 without the aid of a boob!!

Well todays the first day of routine so wish me luck!
