LO is 3.5m and breastfed only and wakes up once in the night to nurse. I pump once a day after he goes to sleep to have some extra in the freezer. It's taken a while but now I get between 4 - 6 oz a night which feels good. I use the milk rarely and am not totally sure why I have such a big collection, but it feels good to have.

We are about to travel for a month and I am wondering if I can ween myself off the evening pumping for the trip. I rather not pump on the go, but I worry about getting that output back if I stop.

So I guess my question is, if I stop pumping in the evening will I be able to start pumping again after a month and still get anything? Will it take a long time to work back up to 4oz?

Also, if I skip pumping now my boobs are KILLING me before LO wakes up for his 4am (sometimes 2am) feeding. So I can't just drop it. How should I go about dropping this pumping?
