I have to go back to work in June and really need to get Isabella (5 months now) onto bottles.
I have already introduced a bottle at the 10pm feed, which Daddy can finally give- she refused him at first. I don't express in place of this and my boobs seem to have managed this but I am concerned about engorgement when i drop other breast feeds.
Has anyone recently stopped breast feeding that can advise how best to do it?
Do I just replace the breast feed with a bottle and hope my boob does not explode or do I express and just reduce the amount I express each time?
Also, she is starting to be a bit hit and miss with her 10pm bottle feed- she totally refused it last night and i had to breastfeed.
I have visions of her not feeding from a bottle when left at Nursery or with Daddy..
so much to worry about!
