Can I temporarily increase BF without problems later on?

I work part time and my dd (8 1/2) goes to nursery for 3 days a week. I do morning and evening feeds and she has formula 2x in the day as I can't express any more. I am finishing work for christmas for 2 weeks on Wed and would like to increase the breastfeeding whilst I am off work. If I do, will I be causing problems when I reduce again on 3rd Jan? Would it be better for my body to stay at the lower feeding level and keep giving the formula whilst i am off work? Any advice gratefully received.

TIA.

bf as you want. If you have any engorgement (you might not) when you return to work would you be able to express to make yourself comfy? -would only last a few days. hth
