Have an event in 6 weeks I want to attend. DD 2.5 weeks old, BF well & I enjoy our time.

Have expressed for the first time today, milk in the fridge, bottle ready but I feel sad.

I know I need to get her used to bottles as I’ll be leaving her for 8-9 hours but I want to feed her myself.

Feel selfish as I know DH wants to help and silly for feeling this way.

Not sure what I’m looking for, just needed to get it out there.

I was in similar situation..wanted to introduce one bottle at bedtime with expressed milk or formula a day..started at around 8-9 weeks but he is so happy on the breast and I could not be bothered with the bottles after a little while so I am just breastfeeding now and if I would need to go somewhere I will leave milk and bottle and just hope for the best Grin sorry I'm not much help..
