Now if only I knew how much milk that was. Right now I have like 10 oz at home and 10 oz at my grandma's house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-freezer-stash-goal#post-542673 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 22:45:28 +0000 yin 542673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had a goal or really kept track of how many oz I had in the freezer. I just had the goal to keep pumping as long as my supply permitted. I made it to a year and finally stopped. My LO drank frozen breast milk for a month while he transitioned to soy milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-freezer-stash-goal#post-542665 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 22:42:09 +0000 CarrieLouWho 542665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've got 200 oz in the freezer now. I've got room for another gift bag of milk and then I'm running out of room. Well, I'd have to get rid of our food. I wish we had room for a deep freezer. LO is almost 4 months, it's only 6 full days worth of feedings though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-freezer-stash-goal#post-539322 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 12:43:54 +0000 MaisyMay 539322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to have about 100 ounces stashed away even as I continue pumping at work. Right now I have 12 1/2 ounces from the last 3 days. My goal has been to stash away at least 4 ounces a day as long as she's taking 4 oz a feeding, and when she moves up to 5 ounces, store away 5, and so on. Right now she takes formula a few times a day too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-freezer-stash-goal#post-539299 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 12:40:27 +0000 Bao 539299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been slacking on pumping but I really should get on it again so that I never have to give her formula. When my supply dips I really worry about this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-freezer-stash-goal#post-539288 Thu, 31 Jan 2013 12:38:55 +0000 mrs. wagon 539288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was thinking last night that it would be great if LMW never had to drink formula, because that would lessen the # of transitions (just breastmilk to cow's milk at age 1!). This would mean I'd have to build up a freezer stash large enough to provide for all of her bottles until she turns 1 before I can quit the pump. (I'm exclusively pumping). </p> <p>I figure, 5 6oz bags a day means 150 bags per month that I'm not pumping and adding to the stash. So that means if I want to quit when she's 10 months old, I need 300 bags...!!! I'm currently at 110 bags. </p>
