[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Start as you mean to go on. Friend of mine was in your situation and when it was time to go back to work the baby wouldn’t take a bottle. She screamed and starved during the day. Friend ended up having to ask for a bunch more time off until they could sort it out. Took months and was a stressful disaster that pushed their marriage to the brink.[/quote] This is one of those situations where you have to give baby a bottle daily. It was stupid of your friend not to do this. [/quote] Yes, do this. The bottle can be expressed breast milk, if you prefer, but if you intend to switch to formula completely, start incorporating formula about a month before you "have to." That gives you time to sort out more reliably if your baby is going to take to it easily, or if it will be a challenge to switch. [/quote]
