bf mom's - I have an unusual problem...
Next week I have to work on wed/thursday... it's the first time I will be away from the baby for that long.
I have a show that I am working from about noon until 11 at night - Right now I am breast feeding all but one feeding a day and also pumping at least once a day - the days I am working I won't be able to feed her or pump for all those hours...will two days of this effect my milk supply? if so, any ideas on how I can prevent that? (I do plan on pumping before I leave and when I get home - but its still 11 hours!)

I read that one day won't effect your milk supply but I don'tk now if two days would. Will you be able to manage to pump some while you're at work?

Why can't you pump at all during that time? Even five minutes in the middle would make you much more comfortable!!!

It's a retail show I am the only one working my booth - its really really busy - I dont even PEE during the show - plus there are about 6,000 people there - no privacy!

UGH. I was figuring you'd have a bathroom break. Thats tough.
I wouldn't worry about your supply, just your own discomfort/leaking.

Yeah, you are going to LEAK!!! Its a horrible side effect but you are going to hurt and leak if you dont pump or express the BM somehow.

greeeeeeat....
I breast feed her all day now - but give her a bottle at 9pm -
If I give her a bottle at her 6 pm feeding as well starting today with that ease me a little next week since my body will be used to not feeding at that time?
