My dd is 26 months old and only nursing 1-2 times per day -- Before bed and sometimes in the morning. This has been our schedule for the past 2-3 months. I need to travel for work for 3 nights, leaving in 2 weeks. Not only am I stressing about missing her, but also wondering if I should try to wean before I leave. If I don't wean her, does anyone know if there is any way I can skip pumping and still have any sort of supply left when I get home? I think she would be ok, with missing a few days since there have been nights where DH has put her down fine. Also, I'm 15 weeks pregnant, I think my supply is decreasing somewhat. I was planning on weaning sometime in the next 5 months or so, but not quite sure if we are ready yet.

You may dry out in that time. She also may lose her nursing reflex. My DD weaned herself a week before she turned 2. She tried a few days later when she was sick only to find she forgot how to suck. I was also pretty much dry in a few days as well. Its been about 2 months since she weaned and I can still get a few drops of milk.
