My maternity leaves just over! When it times to get back to work, it’s really not easy, not for me nor the baby! No proper facility absolutely one of the worst from the other worst…..
Bringing the baby with me not a choice as I don’t have any family around and I also give him breast milk…….so he’ll be with me wherever I go…
I have proposed to be a part timer; still it’s not easy to spend time pumping the milk in the corner of the office with a worry feeling someone will call and need to find me urgently!
So here the problem arises……my milk supply decrease….and it’s like a milk race between me and the baby. Sometimes…when the baby’s hungry I haven’t pumped the milk because it’s not 3 hours yet and don’t suggest me the formula, I have committed myself to give breast milk!
I should work 3 days a week for one month only as I have to prepare my replacement to be ready and I will quit after. Yesterday I planned to work full day as my husband get a holiday and I planned to store the breast milk in the freezer…..what happen is I don’t even get more milk, usually I can save a bottle in the fridge just in case.
I was worry, which I know I can’t be worry….My tips for mums are trying to sleep a lot, it will definitely increase your milk supply. After the last pump and saved in a bottle ask your husband to feed the baby at night, so you will have unbroken night. Try to relax and drink like you never drink before! If you really committed to give only the best, which is breast milk, set the priority on your baby….
