How much milk should I pump for while I am away for 4 days?

Hello.  Next month, I am going out of town for 4 days and leaving my 14 month old daughter with my husband.  She will continue to go to her Montessori school during the day (where I work).  I breast feed her on demand through out the day and a couple feedings at night.  But I don't have any milk stored up and I have started to pump.  Can anyone advise how much I should leave? She eats solids and takes sips from almond and cows milk here and there. thank you!

When I left my kids at that age I left them 15/oz day but they didn't take it all. Especially if she's taking other milks and solids I wouldn't stress too much. Actualy with my son I think I left 20oz but he didn't eat anything much.

Thank you for replying. I have tried leaving her an extended period of time before this trip and she does not want to take the milk.  So far, I only have 20 ounces and I only have a week left! YIKES.
