Expressing for a 9 month old

In two months time I'm going to be leaving breastfed 9-month-old dd2 for two overnight stays a week apart. First one will be from 9am to 5pm the next day, then a week later from about 2pm to about 12 noon the next day, so much less time away.

I can't get my head around how much milk I will need to express and whether I'll have enough room in the freezer for it all! Weaning is going ok so far, she doesn't eat much yet, but I'd guess she'll be eating much more by then.

There's a calculator on Kellymom I think. IIRC it's 1oz per hour plus 1oz per feed. I leave DS 10oz for a 9 hour day at the CM (he's only just started drinking it mind but that's another story!).
