Fellow mum of a booby monster toddler here! Something to consider if you don't manage to wean in time - you won't dry up in a week. Yes, it's likely you're going to have to express/pump for comfort but it's extremely unlikely you'll dry up so if the trip is the only reason why you want to wean you may not have to! Your little one is also very likely to adapt just like that - you won't be there, booby won't be there so he won't be bothered. I totally empathise with you though because I've yet to leave my 22mo for more than 10, maybe 12 hours, partly because I don't really feel the need to but partly because I'm scared of the discomfort (never had much luck pumping). I've refused every single work trip that involved an overnight stay. I refused an out of town hen do that my friends wanted to organise for me. We're even postponing our honeymoon until I'm ready to leave our babe or until she's weaned (which might be a looong time still 🥲). It's just tough isn't it? Hope it goes well for you! X
Oh and also my nipples have started hurting randomly again so that's another reason I want to stop 🙃
