    I was going to suggest some support from either Karitane or Tresillian - if you are BF'ing, you'll be given priority.
    Thanks M2, good advice except I'm not prepared to do ANY CC/CiO - which seems to be what the "sleep schools" do??? We watched a Karitane video at Mothers group and I was crying watching other peoples babies scream.

    My FDC mum seems really nice - he'll be on formula for the time he's away - but I'm ok with that - just hope he doesn't get to like it more than the boobie!

    CF - There are a couple of BB mums who give formula during the day whilst bub is in care and then bf at other times. I believe this is can be done successfully. However be prepared for bub to want you a lot in the evenings and during the night. You've done a great job establising bfing so far and I am sure your DS will still love to bf.

    Some one please correct me here if I am wrong. You could give bub formula in a sippy cup if you don't want to get him used to the bottle.
