Going away for 2 nights/3 days

I’m meant to be going to a wedding in September but will be away from my LG for 3 days and 2 nights. She will be 15 months by then but I am still hoping to be feeding. I’m so anxious about going and my supply drying up. Does anyone have any advice please? At this point I’d rather not go. Thanks

Tummy time is a particular nightmar...
