Please help to ease my mind or give advice if necessary...

This evening I went to get my nails done. I do this at my bff's house I have a private tech (she's a family member that comes to me) usually I bring my daughter(3 months on Saturday) but my best friend has pots and has been pretty episodic today so didn't feel comfortable handling the baby if necessary. Well I forgot my pumps!! So I went 6 hours without pumping after her last feed. I'm very confident that both breasts were successfully drained before I left home. How much will this affect my milk supply?

You’ll be fine not pumping for that one time I wouldn’t panic

You'll be fine. My baby will be 3 months old on the 16th and because she is sleeping 7-9 hours through the night I don't wake up to pump anymore, which sometimes means I don't pump for close to 10 hours. I am exclusively pumping. I'm still averaging 20-25 oz expressed a day and have not seen a drop in my supply as long as I pump 5-6 times in a 24 hour period.
