milk supply question

[trixipaws]

from mid february when i go back to work i may be leaving millie with my parents every week for 36 hours (more details here)

just wondered how itll affect my milk supply? currently i only BF in evenings before i put her down and during the nite/early mornings- she has formula in the afternoons. and possibly by then the evening feed will be formula too, so ill only be BFing thru the nite. but one nite a week ill miss a nite so i wont be using my boobs for 48 hours!

will i hav any problems u think?

You'll find that your supply will most likely drop to meet demand, so if you do find it starts dropping too much then I'd recommend introducing a pumping session to try and boost your supply

I know it will dwindle when you go back to work as you ewill no longer be feeding on demand as you have been with millie, but can you take a pump to work and express some off and store it somewhere?
