Going back to work doesn't have to mean you stop breastfeeding
You can continue to feed your baby in the mornings and evenings, leaving his or her carer to supplement this with a bottle or cup of water or formula if your baby is hungry or thirsty at mealtime. Or, if you want, you can express milk during the day at work, so your baby can still have your milk when you’re not there. This has the added advantage of maintaining your milk supply for feeding during the day at weekends.
Talk to your employer about breaks for expressing milk if this is what you’d like to do – you’re legally entitled to rest, privacy and somewhere to safely store the milk for your baby’s first year.
Remember
You can store expressed breast milk safely and easily in the fridge or freezer, ready to feed your baby later from a bottle or cup.
