HELP moms who breastfed and went to work

Hello!

So this is premature question but I wanted to ask the moms who gave birth and strictly breastfed, how was returning to work? How old was your baby when you returned, how hard was this and if you could of not worked (financially didn’t need to) would you have? What are the challenges?

I’m very newly pregnant but I sign a contract every other year in November for two years. So this November I have to sign. Right now I work every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 9-5 (30 minute commute). I would be due in February and would have three months off so would return to work in May.

I want to only breast feed. So I would have to build a supply and that seems hard. I also hate the thought of missing out on days with my baby. I would return when baby is 3 months

Thankfully, financially my paycheck is more so of a “bonus” for us. I work because I went to school for so long to be a pediatric NP and only worked 2 years as one so feel silly “pausing” my career.

Opinions? Thoughts? Advice?

Thank you!
