Leaving my baby over night. Help

[whimsy]

I have my sisters hen weekend at the end of October(which I have organised) - I'll be leaving DS2 with Dad. I am breast feeding and loving it I want to continue for as long as possible. I am really concerned about leaving him without the boob and me.
Does anyone have any advice/experience? Will he be ok? He has had a couple of bottles before once when I had mastitis I gave him a small amount of formula in one feed (which he was ok with) and last week I left dad for a couple of hours with a bottle of EBM. Ds wouldn't drink it so Dh made him a bottle of formula which he drank 2oz of.
I've decided im only going for 1 night (have got to tell sister) I feel terrible and it's worrying me already. I know he'll be fine with dh. What if he won't take the bottle? What if he won't take my boob when I come back
What should I do? I have a small supply already of EBM but what if he won't take it from the bottle should I give him formula
He will be 16 weeks when I go (I know I'm a bad mother)
Any advice will be appreciated.Thanks

Anyone?

You are not a bad mum - calm down

You will get help

It is Sunday morning and it takes people a while to get going

Last night there was a big controvesy (sp) so everyone got side tracked

(I can't remember my dd is nearly 8)

You are not a bad mother.

Formula will be fine but if you get uncomfortable you may want to express. If ds is reluctant to try a bottle, you may want to do this before you go - get your dh to give him a bottle wrapped in a bra that you have worn so it smells of milk to him. You have to be out of the room so he doesn't get outraged and demand milk from the proper place!

Oh, and congrats on getting to 16 weeks, loads of people stop before that stage.

If DS takes a bottle then thats fine. Feed him as normal but get DH to give him the odd bottle. Do you want to continue b/f?
How long will you be away, your boobs will get full and maybe leak, so take plenty of breast pads and express when you can!
Do a dummy run too to see how it goes!

Thanks
Yes,I want to continue breast feeding for as long as possible. I'm worried about nipple confusion - do you think he will remember what to do after having a bottle for a whole day and night?
I miss the controversy, yet again

what was the discussion I missed last night?
I cant help with nipple confussion I never mixed fed, but lots do. Maybe you could substitute the odd feed so he knows he is getting both?

Good idea auntymandy.
Im still looking for 'the discussion', I missed last night.
