Hi,
If you want to leave her with someone else, could they feed her formula? You can still breastfeed her when she's with you. There is no reason why you couldn't mix-feed if that's what you want to do. It is not necessarily one or the other.
Also, when is your move coming up? Feedings will gradually get quicker, so she might not be "attached to you" all the time. And don't forget, bottle feeding takes time, too. You'd also have the issue of having to have bottles ready and sterilised during the chaos of a move. I'd find it easier to whip out a boob
Obviously it's completely up to you what you do. But there might be many more options than just either breast or bottle.
I hope you find a solution that suits you.

J - I cant tell you from experience that bottles are much more work than breastfeeding. But having said that you gotta be happy with whatever choice you make for you and your beautiful girl

Can you pop her in a sling or something and let her feed when she needs and you can still go about your moving? Hope you work something out xx
