I've been trying to get DD to drink cow's milk and was mixing it with BM in a sippy. We went through 20 oz or so with her drinking a grand total of maybe 4 sips. Blergh.

LO just started solids and I was thinning out her food with breast milk since she was also having a bit of a right boob only nursing strike. I don't even want to think how much I wasted.

The last few bottles, LO has left 1-2 oz. , but I'm not stressed about it. we don't bottle feed often, but I try to give her at least 1 a week so she stays used to it in case I need to be gone for more than a few hours.

We seem to waste a ton of BM daily. I just figure it's part of the job (er, that is...if I thought of pumping as a job, which I guess I do).

We always overfill LOs bottles in the hopes she will drink them, and I use BM with her solids (which she doesn't really eat), and both my husband and I have accidental spills all the time. Last Friday, I left the milk I pumped at work in the car, not even in a refrigerated bag (threw them out).

Yikes. Oh well.

DH left 20 ounces out the other night, then spilled 6 the next morning! I may or may not have cried a little. He felt so bad!
