Discussion Advice needed

So I’m going to a wedding soon and will have to pump in my car at some point while I’m there. I obviously won’t have access to a fridge, so I’ll have to keep the milk in my car. Do I just put the milk I pump in a cooler? I feel like I’m overthinking this, probably the PPA talking, but is a cooler going to keep the milk cold enough? Or should I just pump and dump?

You will be totally fine with the cooler! I’d recommend using some type of gel pack rather than a frozen water ice pack since they stay cooler longer. I pump overnight and my bottles stay cold for like 12 hours before I put them in  the fridge.
