Missing feeds

Hi,

A bf question:
I've got to miss the same (11am) feed over the next two days as I have meetings and my dd will be having ebm from a bottle. My question is, will I find that when I come to feed her at 11am the following day (i.e. day 3) that my supply will have gone?

Just trying to decide whether to pump, it's a total hassle as I'll be in a meeting so will have to make excuses, I'd prefer not to but don't want it to affect my supply.

Thanks

Fot just two days I think you will be fine. You might feel a bit full but your supply will be ok when you go back to normal.

Have you done the 2 days now then? How have you got on?

The two days were fine but it's day three today and she is very frustrated, she's hungry but can't get the milk out. She won't latch on for more than a few seconds and keeps hitting my boob, I don't know how to make her latch so that she'll stimulate my supply again. I also think she's having growth spurt so that's not helping - arrrgh!

Sorry to hear that you've had a bit of a dip in your supply and sorry that I didn't manage to post earlier. Have things improved yet?
