Milk available for feed I don't normally give?

[MrsCLH]

Hi ladies

DS is 6 months old. As of Monday I've replaced his lunchtme bf with a bottle (with a view to going back to work soon). On a Saturday afternoon I usually go to the gym and DH gives DS a bottle for his mid-afternoon feed. If I wanted therefore to bf him at lunchtime today, so he still only gets one bottle, will there be enough milk there?

TIA

Yes!

I would think so but if you're trying to reduce your supply you risk confusing your body.

Yes. At six months an extra feed here or there is not a problem.

Great, thanks for the advice guys. Will just do that today but will try to work out a long term solution to solve the issue with supply. Presumably if I did 2 bottles on a Saturday (lunch and mid-pm) I'd still be alright to bf the mid-pm feed on the other 6 days?
