I am trying to work out what to do about feeding and going back to work.DD will be 8 months and up until then, the plan is to bf as i have been doing, but replace the expressed dreamfeed with a formula when she turns 6mo next week.
I will not be able to express at work so she will need formula during the day at nursery. Will i be able to keep on bf for the other feeds though, or will my supply be bodged up?

I carried on doing morning and evening feeds only until both DDs were a year old. By that time they weren't having a mid-morning milk feed in any case, just formula mid-pm. Although I did keep doing the dreamfeed as a breastfeed as long as they needed it, as it was such a lovely snuggly time!

thanks, bram, that's reassuring to know.
