Pumping Breastmilk for Daycare

I will be going back to work when my son is 12 weeks old. I have been breast feading exclusively and started pumping to build up a supply for day care (he will be going to daycare 3 days a week for 9 hrs/day) Does anyone know about how many oz a 12 week old baby could go through in a 9 hr time frame?

Well I was not breastfeeding but when I started by daughter at daycare when she was 2 months old they wanted me to bring 6 4 oz bottles to begin with. and usually she only drank 4 of them and I would bring 2 home with me. So its always better to have more in case she does want more then to not have enough
