You can use lactogen 1 for first 6 months.I would suggest you to keep expressed breast milk in covered container.it can be stored up to 6 hrs at room temperature and the care taker will feed by katori and spoon.But start this 15 days before you join so that child will be accustomed with that.Once he is 6 months old you can start weaning food along with that.Do not give milk by bottel.
