LO drinks 18 (4 bottles of 4.5 oz) for now, so I am in good shape right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/working-moms-do-you-pump-what-your-baby-eats-while-youre-gone#post-346107 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 07:54:40 +0000 rachiecakes 346107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to pump twice a day, went home to nurse at lunch. So I would come home with two bottles for the next day's feedings. </p> <p>I stopped pumping at 9 months because DS was no longer interested in nursing during the day and was getting fussy taking a bottle, too - he was teething.<br /> Now he's only breastfed in the morning and before bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/working-moms-do-you-pump-what-your-baby-eats-while-youre-gone#post-346080 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 07:39:22 +0000 mediagirl 346080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to but since I've been sick, I haven't been keeping up as well. I have had to use a freezer bag every day for the past couple of days. I'm hoping my supply rebounds soon. A friend of mine just sends what she pumps so her son only eats what she is producing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/working-moms-do-you-pump-what-your-baby-eats-while-youre-gone#post-336481 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 19:04:26 +0000 jennylynn 336481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was pumping enough for 5 feedings while I was working (I work 12 hours shifts), but now I'm suddenly only pumping enough for 4. LO usually eats 4 feedings while I'm gone, but I'm a little nervous with the sudden dip in my supply. Do you pump enough to cover what your baby would normally eat in a day? </p>
