I just looked at my Milk Maid App and I have 1216 oz. I have been EPing for a while.. DD is 9.5 months so I'm thinking of dropping to 2 pumps soon, but I don't want my supply to completely tank. I'm still on the fence with how long I plan on pumping.. 12 mo.? 18 mo.? Not sure yet.

I just counted the other day! ~100 oz. I've never had to dip into the stash yet, but need to start using them soon before they go bad!
-
@LaineysMom: That is insane! Are you actively using it? That's really impressive!
-
@MaisyMay: haha thanks! I'm currently cycling through it.. At this point, i only produce ~ 2 oz. more than her intake per day, so we've just been defrosting one 6 oz. bag every couple of days then I freeze ~30 oz. once a week.

When DS was 6 mo old and I had to donate our freezer stash due to his food allergies I had 1,100+ to give.
I rebuilt my freezer stash and we used it a few times a week when I worked during the rest of our nursing journey. When he self weaned at 21 mo I had enough milk for him to get ~12 oz a day for 3.5 mo so that's ~1,368 oz (12oz*114days). Phew!

This thread got me to finally count my stash and I have WAAAAY more than I thought. 180oz!!!

@anbanan15: how did you pump so much?? Are you pumping after every feeding? I just dont understand how to build such a big stash an feed LO
-
I am constantly in rotation, I think we have a revolving 100-150 oz or so.

@cheert16: I only pumped once a day once my supply was established, right before bed. I did pump at work also, but that milk usually got used for the following day, unless I wasn't working the next day. I had a huge over supply and when my supply was at it's best I could overflow both bottles in one 15 minute pumping session...
