Hi All<br><br>
I was hoping for some advice --<br><br>
In February I will be starting a new job and my daughter will be 11 months old. She has been going to daycare since she was 3 months old with pumped bottles of breastmilk.<br><br>
My daughter is beginning to nurse less and I am noticing my supply getting lower. I would like to continue to breastfeed her, but I am having a lot of trouble maintaining the bottles that I had been by pumping at work and I'm supplementing with one bottle of formula every day for daycare. I am going to continue to breastfeed her at least until she is a year old, and hope to let her lead her weaning.<br><br>
When I start this new job I am considering not pumping during the day and nursing her at home on nights and weekends.<br><br>
Does anyone have any advice? What do other moms send their babies to daycare with in their bottles? Should I send bottles of formula?<br><br>
Just FYI this has nothing to do with being worried about the environment -- I totally know my rights and I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem<br><br>
Thanks for any help<br><br>
