5 month old dropping night feeds

I've been bf (nearly exclusively) with a 120ml of formula at 7.30pm. Now we've started weaning, I'm a bit lost, my lo seems to be dropping her night feeds. She's a complete milk guzzler and was feeding every 2/2.5 hours. I'm happy that she's going longer between feeds but by breast are becoming really engorged and lumpy. How long does it take for my milk supply to adjust? And what should I be doing in the meantime...I'm guessing I shouldn't be expressing the dropped feeds?

No don't express.. but some will leak out.. try a warm cloth, it shouldn't take too long just a few days for your supplies to adjust.
