Breastfeeding?

Question

I’m in the army and I go back to work May 1st I have to put my baby in daycare but I don’t want to give him formula any suggestions??

Answer

Does your unit have an sop on breastfeeding? Mine did. There were designated breastfeeding/ pumping areas and moms were allowed to pump throughout the day

Answer

Pump at work and send him to daycare with milk bags. Your daycare should have a procedure on how you send the milk. 
In the Navy (sorry, that’s the branch I was in so at all I know haha) there are rules for mothers breastfeeding. There is a designated room wit. a sink that’s not a bathroom that should be for pumping mothers (unless they’re on a ship, then they go wherever unfortunately). 
Your command should have some type of SOP on it honestly, so I would check that! At the very least, if you’re in a traditional work setting and not deployed, taking a 15-20 minute break every 2 hours shouldn’t be a problem. It’s not like you’re going out to smoke or something, you’re collecting your little babes food. 
I’ve had friends who didn’t have fridges at work to store the milk in and brought a lunch box everyday with huge ice packs to keep the milk fresh until they got home and could freeze it.

Answer

Yes look for SOP.
