Going Back to Work While NursingIf you're planning to return to work after your baby is born, balancing your career and nursing can be a concern. Although it requires time and dedication, many women successfully continue nursing after resuming work, and most find the experience rewarding. Here are some tips to help you manage both effectively.
Planning Your Baby's Feeding Routine
First, decide how your baby will be fed while you're away. Some women opt for formula feeding by the caretaker, while others prefer expressing breast milk. Regardless of your choice, it's important to get your baby accustomed to bottle feeding. Around six weeks, introduce at least one bottle a day filled with either breast milk or formula, depending on your plan. It's also beneficial to have someone else occasionally feed the bottle to your baby to establish this new routine.
Expressing Milk at Work
If you choose to continue with breast milk, you'll need to express milk at work for the next day's feeding. Find a suitable place at your workplace for this purpose. Fortunately, many workplaces are now providing private areas for nursing mothers. It's also a good idea to freeze some breast milk before returning to work to handle any particularly busy days when you might not be able to express milk.
Transitioning Back to Work
Both you and your baby will need time to adjust once you return to work. If possible, consider starting back part-time to ease the transition. Waiting until your baby is around sixteen weeks old can also help, as breastfeeding routines are often better established by then.
The Benefits of Continuing to Breastfeed
There are many advantages to continuing breastfeeding after returning to work. Besides the nutritional benefits for your baby, maintaining this close bond during morning and evening feedings can make the transition smoother for both of you. Take your time, be patient, and work through any challenges together, ensuring a rewarding experience for you and your baby.
