How much EBM do I need for a night away?

My DS is 10 weeks old today and we plan to leave him overnight at the end of November.

I was wondering if anyone can advise on how much EBM I need to leave.

My last feed will be about 6.30pm, then I'll be back at 12 the following day. At present he seems to cluster/suck for comfort for about 1.5 hours in the evening then I give him 3ozs of EBM at 10.30pm. He will then feed again at approx 4am, 8.30am and 10.30am then I'll be back.

How much EBM should I leave? I have no idea how much fills him up at the other feeds.

Good luck! In Feb I'm away for a whole weekend! Better allow a couple of months to stock up!
