Pool with bf baby

MIL and I are taking DD to the pool this afternoon. I BF DS. Can I feed him after I've been in the water? Is it possible to BF wearing a one piece ? Should I just bring a bottle? He's 3.5 months if I give him a bottle at the pool but can't replace with a pumping session will I mess up my supply?

Sorry for all the questions but this is a new situation for me. Thanks.

I have been bringing my DD (5mo) to the pool all summer and BFing her there. Just dry off and you should be fine.

I've breast fed after being in the pool. You should be able to bf in a one piece. I'd just lower the straps on the suit for easier access and probably wear a nursing cover or use a towel to cover up a bit.

If you feel more comfortable giving a bottle then do that. At this point, missing one nursing session should not have an affect on your supply. If you get uncomfortably full, I'd just hand express some in the bathroom.

I feed in a one piece all the time. You are perfectly fine to BF. I wouldn't waste a bottle when you are right there!

I BFed dd last summer after the pool. It's pretty easy in a swimsuit, just pull it down and use a towel for cover.

This. Just pop out of the top, and use a towel or coverup over your shoulder to cover. I BF'd after swimming all summer.
