[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I am due in less than a month. I am planning to breastfeed but give 1-2 bottles of formula a day. My baby can still get breast milk, but he will get used to formula and bottles. I might go back to work part time ( 3 days) until 6 months, and might continue to breastfeed until then if it’s working out. I will stop breastfeeding once I’m back at work full time. [/quote] Awesome plan, OP! Breastfeeding can be really rough or really easy (I experienced both). By four to six months you'll have a very good idea of where you are and what the best plan will be. For now, focus on the delivery and perhaps take a breastfeeding class (the ones at the Breastfeeding Center are very good). I plan to stop expressing milk at work once the baby turns 1 year old but offer at all other times, and see what happens. With my first, I was able to nurse just mornings and evenings for a long time.[/quote]
