She said in stories she was doing it in case she needed to work away for anytime, and wanted to make sure T had enough milk. I think it’s quite smart if being away is a possibility, as I can’t imagine anything worse than introducing a toddler to formula for the first time because his mum is away and you’re out of defrosted breast milk! NHS advice is to keep pumping to keep up your supply if you combi feed.Yeah I don’t get it either. Why not just feed the baby the milk she’s expressing rather than shelling out for formula as well.
She usually lives and dies by what the NHS recommends as well and they advise against combi feeding so your milk supply knows how much you need for your baby. Which makes sense. She’s really over complicating things for herself for no obvious reason.
Anyway, I don’t know why I care that much!! I still think she’s an insufferable martyr who believes she’s the first woman to feed a babe from her breast!
