We have a wedding next Friday and my inlaws are coming over. LO will be 12 weeks and is EBF.
I am curious of two things when preparing for this:
1. Do you take your freezer stash out and put in bottles to prepare for your sitter to just grab?
2. How do you factor in cluster feeding w a bottle? I am trying to figure out how many ounces to leave.
Re: Cluster feeding and baby sitter?
- yes, it takes so long for me to defrost my milk, I can't imagine doing it with a crying baby. Actually, maybe you can just leave whatever you have freshly expressed that day or the day before.
- defrosted bm, once babe has started drinking, should really be used within the hour. Maybe defrost the bags but let sitter put in a bottle.
