WWYD - Timing a Pump

[happyin14]

LO is 3 months old and my supply is pretty good. I have to go to a show that starts at 7, ends at 10 and then there's a party after.

I can pump right before - which is LO's 7 pm bottle. Then he usually gets a smaller one (I've been nursing so it's just a shorter session...) around 9. Then he STTN and doesn't eat until 6:30 or 7.

So - I would like to wait and pump when I'm home but that will be about 5 hours since the previous pump. Think it will be okay?

It will be absolutely ok! You might feel a little full but it will not hurt your supply!

Should be just fine -- you're really talking about just an extra 1-2 hours off your regular schedule -- lots of babes vary their wake-up times by that much. If you get uncomfortable, you can hand express just enough to take the edge off.

Agree that you should be fine, maybe a bit uncomfortable. Have fun at the show and party!

If it was me one night would not hurt in my opinion. Especially a later snack.
