I need to wean Imogen off breast milk before I go back to work (2 June) so want to know how to wean her off gradually... how long does it take and if I cut down, what do I do with milk in boobs? I know if I express I will produce more so how can I do this without feeling too uncomfortable? She takes a bottle of EBM so am not too concerned about the bottle issue. It's more the formula - I guess I will find out if she will take it nearer the time - if she does am I better just stopping completely? Should I increase bottle feeds with EBM nearer time so she is used to bottles all time before introducing formula? And how long should I allow before returning to work to ensure she will take formula?
My OH will be full time dad and Imogen takes bottle from him well so should be good transition. We can increase him giving her bottle nearer time too.
Any ideas/advice ladies??
