Day away from 3month old DD, how will my boobs cope?!

DP has been offered Wimbledon tickets for the first week in July when DD will be just over 3 months old. She's EBF at the moment with one bottle of formula at about 10pm. My parents would babysit but would mean being away from mid morning until quite late evening. Will my boobs have exploded by then or is there anything I could do to minimise the engorgement? Or should I just accept I won't be able to go Sad

No it'll be fine. Take a pump with you and express when you get full and uncomfortable. You could keep it and pop it in a cool bag or I just tip it down the loo after expressing.

Or take DD and your parents with you it's a nice day out and if they have ground passes not to expensive. I would have struggled to leave DD at 3 months as she was feeding every 1.5 hours and wouldn't take a bottle.

Are you not allowed to take babies?
