We use to live w/my folks and had a small stash down there. It is gone because my mom thought it only lasted 30 days frzn. Even though I told her it lasted longer.

I have about 10+ 6oz bags frzn. I will also be bringing my pump and a few extra storage bags. We will be staying about two days total.

Kori eats about 4-6 times a day. Majority being by breast, w/two bottles pure formula. Dain eats also 4-6 times a day. One feeding a combo of 3/4 BM & 1/4 Formula.

Here is a link that may help you. I am unsure of your situation so this is the best help I can be right now.

Some info that might help would be:

Are you going with your children for the two days?
How long each day will you be apart from your children?

I will be w/kids all of TG. For Black Friday I will be away for at least one to two feedings. A max of three feedings on Black Friday. Also the car trip is about 1.5 to 2.5 hours drive one way. The way my hubby drives, is about 2hrs one way. I've tried the calculator, and it has only confused me.
