[quote=Anonymous]OP, when I had my first baby and my first nanny, it took me awhile to figure out how to be a MB. When I started working again (at 6 months), it got easier. She is likely feeling strange and guilty that she's home, but someone else is there to soothe her baby. Some things that helped me start to separate enough to let the nanny do her job: the nanny always offered to take him for a diaper change after I fed him. She would plan to take him for walks regularly. She would occasionally suggest that I take a nap or go out myself. Is the MB pumping in preparation for going back to work? You should also point out to her that a lot of babies have trouble taking a bottle if they've been exclusively breastfed. She needs to start letting her baby practice now. If she can get a bottle ahead, you can try to feed the baby while she pumps.[/quote]
