Weekend away from BF toddler

[lullaby23]

DS is 18 months and I am going to a wedding overseas next weekend and it will be the first time I've been away from him over night. He usually BFs twice a day for 15/20 mins at a time.

I know he will be fine with DH and will take a little bit of cows milk from a cup and eats well but I'm wondering whether it's likely I will get engorged from missing 5 feeds? I am leaving after his bed time on Friday and will get back for his bedtime on Monday.

I packed up all my expressing kit long ago as he stopped taking a bottle at 4 months but is it worth picking up a manual pump just in case?

Thanks in advance.

Forgot to mention I am also 10 weeks pregnant with DC2.

I was in a similar situation with DS1 and didn't get engorged. The break (three days) did seem to cause milk to dry up. I remember it hurt like a bugger to reestablish feeding but that may have been me/ pregnancy sore boobs etc. In the same situation I'd probably of hand expressed in the shower morning and night to keep milk supplies up.

When I went away at this stage of bfeeding also pregnant I hand expressed just to relieve discomfort.

Thanks both!

Yes I am a bit concerned my milk might be drying up soon anyway, I wouldn't mind DS weaning but I think he would have other ideas.
