What happens if I don't BF for a day?

I have my friends wedding coming up but I can't take my 3mo along. I'm currently trying to build a freezer stash to feed him but not having much luck (getting 30ml a day if I'm lucky). My exclusively BF baby will spend the day with my mother in law being bottle fed (at this rate it will probably be formula) but I'm wondering, if I pump a couple of times throughout the day, will that be ok? I don't want to impact my BF supply but it'll be a busy day and I can't imagine spending hours in the loo pumping.

Nappy changing help

So we only have this problem at night and it’s only a recent thing. So my son has been feeding a lot at night. Every 2 hours or so and completely emptying both sides before going back to sleep. This means his nappies at every wake up are extremely full. Every time I change him he pees or there is so much in the nappy it ends up all over his back and I have to change his clothes. I have tried a tissue over, I’ve tried putting the new nappy on and pulling the old one from under it (I guess like the knicker trick some of you may have done as kids) and it is still everywhere. I’m already exhausted getting up so often and having to do a full clothing change at night is a nightmare… please help!
