Pumping for most of the day and nursing?
I am ging back to work in a few weeks, and I will pumping for most of the day and DD will be getting bottles. She is going to be 6 months old. I am curious if she is going to reject the breast for the feedings I am home for and on the weekends. Any advice or experience would be great. TIA!

Probably not. If you haven't already swithc it up on a regular basis and give her a bottle every now and then. Before I returned to work, DH gave him a bottle right before bedtime and on Saturdays I worked and DH gave him all his feeding via a bottle (obviously). DS was use to getting it anyway he could get it, however it took a long time for him to take a bottle from me.

I doubt it. DD has been nursed and bottle fed with BM for months now...

I came back to work in the beginning of June when DD was 12 wks and she is just fine with bottles during the day and nursing when I am around...she knows I am "the milk lady"

DS started daycare at 3.5 months and had no issues switching back and forth. He seems to prefer BFing.
