I don't know what I'm saving it for... it's probably not even good anymore! But I don't want my stash to be completely gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-sad-when-your-bm-stash-was-used-up#post-1538548 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 21:53:08 +0000 MaisyMay 1538548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. I felt sad about it. DH was a gem and helped me make it feel like a big deal. I fed LO the bottle and talked to her about how hard we'd worked to pump the milk, how important it was for us to give it to her, all of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-sad-when-your-bm-stash-was-used-up#post-1538547 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 21:52:49 +0000 blackbird 1538547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just happy to have my freezer space back! All that milk took up tons of room and we rationed out a bottle a day until she was six months old </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-sad-when-your-bm-stash-was-used-up#post-1538529 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 21:40:23 +0000 Purpledaisy 1538529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had 300+ ounces pretty much at all times and now I'm down to 40 ounces and it makes me really sad and I totally don't want to use them up! She's 13 and I still nurse her but I when at work she just gets almond milk now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-sad-when-your-bm-stash-was-used-up#post-1538429 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 20:45:29 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1538429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was sad because it was a (teeny tiny) stash that I built while on leave. Every time I saw it I was reminded of my leave. When it was gone, that time together seemed so long ago and far Away so I was sad for a very weird reason :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-feel-sad-when-your-bm-stash-was-used-up#post-1538291 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 19:57:05 +0000 Charm54 1538291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I EPed for 6 months and supplemented. I had a bit of a freezer stash that I used to wean her to 100% formula , and then kept 50 oz for an "emergency". Dh thought I was crazy and should just use it up, but for some reason I liked having it in the freezer, like a savings account, lol.</p> <p>Well EVERY grocery store in town is sold out of her formula type so I hauled out the old stash until they get restocked (one guy said should be there tomorrow). Anyway it makes me sad that it's gone, which is ridiculous because it's meant to be used! I guess I no longer have a reminder of all those hours attached to my BFF the sucking machine, haha!</p> <p>Were you sad when your freezer stash was used up? </p>
