Diaper Swappers

My husband and I will be going out one night this week and we will be gone for several feedings. I already have a freezer supply ready so that he can eat while we're gone. My question is if I have no access to a pump & I miss 2 feedings for one night, will this affect my supply at all? My son is 6 months old & just started solids if this makes any difference.

Anyone?

no it shouldn't. It should only apply if longer than that but not sure how much longer.

It probably won't. You may want to escape to a bathroom to hand express if you begin to feel uncomfortable. Make sure you have lots or breast pads. And have fun!!

Nope should be fine. Feed right before and then either feed or pump when you get home. I will be doing the same thing this Friday night.

My only worry would be leaking and/or being very uncomfortable. I hope you have fun!
