Cutting down on bf'ing and feeling guilty :(

[toffee87]

Hello, I've been breastfeeding since day one and my son is almost 7 months. I'm back at work in 7 weeks and plan to breastfeed for the first and last feeds of the day and formula during the day. I've started introducing formula to the mid afternoon feed. I just feel so guilty I hate it, I'm feeling so emotional. I just hope he still wants me for a couple of feeds when I'm back at work.

Sorry, just felt the need to let it out

I will have to do this eventually too. Was wondering how long before going back to work I would have to start introducing formula. Bs he will be 61/2 months by then so weening anyway so I guess I'd be cutting back around then anyway. I can imagine that it will be difficult on both counts, stopping feeding and going back to work. I wish you luck.

I feel a bit better today xxx
