Adding a checked bag mid-itin?
I am flying PDX-ORD-ROC-EWR-TLV
As a 1P i know i can check 3 bags. IF I check 2 in PDX, would i be able to add the 3rd bag in EWR. I have some stuff i am going to try and get during my layover.

This won't be a problem at all. You can just tell the gate agent you would like to check it to your destination instead of carrying it on. If you were already at your free bag limit, and I know you sated you won't be, and the flight looks full, they will most likely even waive the extra baggage fee.
