To all the working mamas out there,
Hey ladies, here's my situation:
I'm heading back to work this coming Tuesday after having 12 wonderful weeks off with my new daughter. I'll be working three 12 hour shifts each week (with one weekend a month), so she'll be at daycare 2-3 times a week, depending on my schedule that particular week. I leave the house at 6:15 in the morning and won't return until 7:20-30ish. Dad will be taking her to and from daycare on my work days, the only days she'll go. I've been exclusively breastfeeding her, but she's had a bottle once (mama got her hair done! Woo!), so I know she'll take it...
My question is, how did all of you breastfeeding, working mamas out there make the transition to bottles at daycare? I have no idea how much she eats in a feeding (guessing 3-5 oz). Send supplies and let them prep or pre make bottles? She eats on her own timing right now, so I hate to give them a schedule. Blah, I just what's best, but because I've been with her since birth, this mama's a little lost :/
So what has worked for you? Examples would be so helpful!
Thanks!
