DS2 at 6 months.
Me to feed first thing Mon-Wed then late afternoon (5pm ish) and the evening and over night (co sleeping). Then feeding on demand Thursday, Fr, Sat, Sun.

And more to the point would DS be ok? He would have EBM or fomula when I'm not there.

It sounds fine to me, dd 10months feeds are often erratic some days 3feeds some 8 but I always seem to have enough milk.

boobs are very clever - they'll work it out... I assume this is to manage going back to work...

Are you going to express while you're at work? You may find you're engorged during the day, esp. Monday and you might want to relieve the pressure...

I was thinking I would at least once, would I need to maintain supply?

It all depends on your boobs. DS went down to feeding nights only at 11 months and boobs were fine during the day - the only thing that might confuse them is that you're feeding during the day when you're around. You may find this is tireing as you're sort of 'relactating' every week....
