My baby is 4 weeks old and I'm ready to start pumping occasionally and giving her a bottle. I won't be going back to work until August, but I've read that this is the best time to introduce a bottle and I want to get myself used to pumping once daily.
What is the best way to go about this? Should I replace a feeding with bottled breastmilk? Should I pump after my morning feeding and store that?
For storing milk, do I add freshly pumped milk to a bag of frozen milk? Should I put it directly in the freezer or in the refrigerator if I'm going to use it the next day?
I'm just not really sure where to start. Could anyone enlighten me? Or just tell me what you did?
