The most I've ever had in the freezer is about 30 ounces. I would love to have the kind of output you ladies do! I pump 3x a day and was just meeting her demands. I got my period back and it's killing my output. Had to give soy milk today.

Never had great supply, and I didn't religious pump b/c I was already dealing with other issue and just did not have the energy for it.. The most I've ever had was like 3 weeks worth, now dwindled down to like, barely a week, but she's 9 months, and we've been supplementing, and if she has to go full formula for the next few months, I'm okay with it.

I EPed. When I stopped pumping, I had 3200 oz of milk - and had donated 6000 oz.

@Adira: I put al l of my frozen bags in giant 2 gallon ziplocks by month so I just can grab in the big bag and go. So much easier!

@yellowbird: I did that too!!! But my freezer is so full, I have three layers of the 2 gallon bags and the oldest is on the bottom! Well, actually I took everything out a few days ago to re-organize it, so for the moment, I'm good, but I'm putting more in than I'm taking out, so it's getting complicated.

I just donated milk because my baby doesn't really like bottles at 8 months. I kept feeling like I wanted to save it in the freezer as insurance "in case" but at this point he still barely takes 8 oz when I am at work for 9 hours typically pumping at least 16 oz. And he's a big eater! Just prefers it straight for the source. I know I can mix it with food for him but I prefer to just nurse him when we are together and give him regular food
