Re: Questions for Working and BFing Mom's
1. How long are you away from your LO? About 9 hours altogether.
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day? He's at daycare for about 8.5 hours and only drinks 9-10 ounces. He eats a lot at home.
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away? I pump 18-20 ounces every day, if I count my at-home morning pump. I pump 12-13 ounces at work.
1. How long are you away from your LO? 9 - 9.5 hours a day
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day? he's getting older now so he's eating more solids. Right now he eats about 15 oz a day at daycare. When he first started daycare he was eating 28 oz a day.
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away? I pumped twice a day at work for about 20 oz. I have just recently stopped pumping at work. I'm using my freezer stash for daycare.
1. How long are you away from your LO? about 10 hours
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day? she drinks about 20-24 oz a day while I'm at work
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away? I hesitate to even answer this because I don't want to discourage you - I have my own serious supply issues! I started by pumping 10-12 oz a day, that quickly went to about 5-6, and is now about 1-2. It suuuucks.
1. How long are you away from your LO?
I have to hand him over to DH at 5:30am in order to get to work on time so if you count from then to when I get back home and can take him again at 4:30, 11hrs. I hate it.
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day?
He usually eats 8-10ozs while I'm gone, but it depends on the day.
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away?
I pump 3 times while away and get 10-12ozs.
1. How long are you away from your LO? About 10.5-11 hours
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day? 15 oz
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away? 14-17oz
1. How long are you away from your LO?
About 9 a day, sometimes shorter because i leave work early on Fridays, or sometimes longer because i have doc appts (chiro, allergy shot, hair)
2. How many ozs. does he/she go through in a day?
10 ounces of bm (twice a day) and 6-7 ounces of formula once a day.
3. How many ozs. are you able to pump while away?
I pump 2 times while away and get 4-5ozs (total). Obviously I have supply issues. Also pump in the am before I leave and pm after he goes to bed to hopefully have enough for 2 bottles, depending on the week I am taking 1-3 bags out of the freezer.
