Traveling out of state for work - what to do about bottles
My DS is 9 months old (tomorrow!). In two weeks I have to travel for work and will be gone 4 days. I plan to pump while I'm gone to keep up my supply. Unfortunately I will have to throw the milk (that might just kill me) as there is not a place to refrigerate it. 
Right now, I am down to one pump at work and supplement a few ounces of formula in the two bottles he takes from the nanny. The small freezer stash I have left won't last the whole time I'm gone. Should I have them do 1/2 BM 1/2 formula until the BM is gone? Or just use the BM and give him formula when it's gone? Didn't know if it would make a difference either way.
