I currently have two bins, which is all that will fit on a shelf in my freezer, and they are full with milk piled on top of and around them! Overflowing!!</p> <p>@sotofamilia: @Weagle: I do cycle my stash! But I've found that while I take out 16 oz every week, I'm usually freezing at least 20oz for the week! And now that I'm pumping instead of doing a dreamfeed, I'm freezing even more!!! So I AM rotating and not worried about it spoiling, but my stash appears to just be growing and growing! Yikes! Although a good problem to have, haha.</p> <p>I guess maybe I just need to make some more room in my freezer and maybe buy less frozen food for now so I have room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-deep-freezer-where-do-you-store-your-milk#post-1194988 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:24:06 +0000 Weagle 1194988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't keep a ton of stuff in our freezer, so we just put it there. It's side-by-side, too. We did have to be conscious of space, though. I cycled through quickly enough that I was never worried about it spoiling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-deep-freezer-where-do-you-store-your-milk#post-1194981 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:20:33 +0000 sotofamilia 1194981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: are you rotating your stash? I find that I never build enough up to need that much space, since I'm constantly freezing one bag and unfreezing one bag for the next day. But I did make an effort to cook a lot of the meat we had frozen, so I don't have too much that needs to be in there at one time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-deep-freezer-where-do-you-store-your-milk#post-1194967 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:14:18 +0000 betsyboop 1194967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was pumping, we made a conscious effort not to buy meats to put in tge freezer along with most other food. We moved into our place while I was pumping so starting with an empty freezer made it a little easier. How do you store your milk? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-deep-freezer-where-do-you-store-your-milk#post-1194940 Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:02:18 +0000 Adira 1194940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious what other pumping ladies do! We just have a side-by-size fridge/freezer. Our freezer is full of normal freezer stuff and then I'm also trying to store my milk in there! It's starting to overflow and I'm running out of room!!</p> <p>I'm curious what you ladies do if you don't have a deep freezer (or another freezer) to store your milk in! Did you just not run out of room? Did you throw out some of the normal freezer stuff to make room for milk? Did you just stop freezing your milk (and then what do you do with it)?</p> <p>I need advice! </p>
