I go back next Tuesday. I'm looking forward to work. I'm a little stressed about two things. Number 1- getting two kids ready and out of the house by 7am. And number 2- the whole bf, pumping, bottles etc. Any advice? My kids go to daycare at my work, so I plan on going over to feed Klaire once during the day and then other times she will get bottles.
Also, I just found out that mh will be out of town the first week I'm back at work. So, that sucks. I'm on my own for the first week! I hope I can do this.
Re: Going back to work-
Good luck!
When I was working and pumping, I spent a lot of time cleaning the parts and bottles in between sessions. My LC reminded me that EBM is good for up to 6 hours (or something like that) and there is really no need to sterilize the parts in between pumping sessions. I was hesitant at first, but then I just started wiping them down in between, and it was fine. Saved a lot of time!
You DH better come home with a present for you, that's all I gotta say!
