Hey baby would take time to adjust. She can continue with breast milk. Can pump and store. To begin with she can even mix the two (formula and breast milk) . My doctor told me there is no harm but I would suggest consult your own doc once before doing that. Be consistent. Baby will eventually learn. Good luck.

hi Rebecca,pumping milk.and storing is best option,its always best to give breast milk till six months , ask your sil to invest in good breast pump as baby is small and needs bm, so she can store the milk in glass or clean steal container the express milk or keep in milk.pouches available for bm storage in market,pouches can be kept in fridge and bm can be kept in fridge till 24 hours.if her leave is not extended till six months , she need to keep pumping option and visiting to feed baby once as this will keep breast stimulation on and so the supply of milk will be continuous which is very important.

Hey <u><b><span style="color:#3B5998;"> @5fedec01cccb6d0014097596 </span></b></u><span style="color:#3B5998;"><u></u></span>, as <span style="color:#3B5998;"><b> @6372999217d2c800158d8bec </b></span><span style="color:#3B5998;"><b></b></span><span style="color:#3B5998;"><b></b></span> said, pumping is a very good option. If her office is around 20 min, then its all the more easy for her. If possible for her and if her work allows, then try to extend two more months. Also if she is working in IT, then let her ask for work from home. Convey my warm wishes to your SIL.
