    I was thinking of ringing karitane?

    Who is karitane?

    The short answer is no, she won't starve. She's 11mths, she is capable (even if not willing!) to go long stretches without bf. She will have water and food - even if it isn't a lot, they don't need three square meals at this age. Many mums find when they return to work they are able to continue bf, feeding right before they leave, as soon as they get home and then overnight.

    She may decide to feed lots overnight to make up for it! Are you working 5 days?

    Don't stress. It is going to be ok
