Help your baby learn to take a bottle of breastmilk. If you plan to be away from your baby, you may want to try having your partner, friend, or family member give him a very small amount of breastmilk in a bottle when he is 3 to 4 weeks old. This will help your baby get used to a bottle if you plan to return to work or school.
Preparing a Bottle of Breast Milk. 1  1. Express the breast milk manually. If you will be feeding your baby breast milk, but will be unable to breastfeed, you will need to express your breast milk ahead of time and store it until feeding time. 2  2. Use a breast pump.
