skipping a pumping session?

Iget up at 5:30, pump, then feed my baby at around 6:30.  I then pump at work at 9:15, 12, and 3.  How horrible do you think it would be if I skipped the 12 pumping tomorrow?  Will that really mess me up?  Do you think I will have engorgement issues?  I havent really had a problem with that in quite some time.  Do you think my 3 pump session will make up for the lost one?

    I think you'd be fine, but my supply sucks, so I don't know if I'm the best to be answering this question!

    I skip all the time and it never really seems to affect my supply

    Skipping every once in a while shouldn't kill your supply. You might get a little leaky by the end of the day though, so make sure you wear some pads!

    If you don't make it a habit & skip all the time, then you should be fine. Just wear pads so you don't leak everywhere. Have fun at the bdays

    I pump about the same schedule and I missed my 12 pump yesterday.  It was fine!!  I was just a bit fuller at 3.  Once in a while shouldn't hurt.

    If it's just one day I don't think it would be a problem. You could always do an extra session at home or during the night if you were worried.

    You may, however, get a little engorged or be uncomfortable.  Bring pads for your bra just in case.
