@regberadaisy: I just did how many ounces I produce in a day, figured out how many days she's been alive, and just multiplied the two.

That's awesome!!! Just going by the ~30oz a day (some days I'm sure have been less & others have been upwards of 50 with my oversupply) I've made 12,630!!

Ha, I track this stuff meticulously. I pumped 37.4 gallons with my first kid. I am currently at 4.9 gallons with baby 2. I also breastfeed.
42.3 gallons! 5414.4 ounces.

Let’s say the kids have been eating 25 ounces of milk a day since they were a month old. I’m not even going to count that first month, just for ease of calculating.
25 ounces a day x 2 kids= 50 ounces a day
5.5 months x 30 day in a month= 165 days
165 days x 50 ounces each day=8,250 ounces of milk
20 calories per ounce x 8,250 ounces of milk=165,000 calories burned
165,000 ÷ 300 (number of calories in a Snickers bar, approx.)= 550 Snickers bars.

hm. Assuming an average of 25oz per day times 403 days... that's 10,075 ounces! ! woah.

I could get all complex, but let's assume 30 ounces a day = 3,690 ounces.

About 6,800 oz. and I have 1000 oz in my freezer! Time to think about cutting pumping sessions.. Maybe..

~21,138 oz!
Assuming 30oz/day nursing plus the amount I kept track of from pumping. I wouldn't be surprised if that number was much higher though as DS nursed 24/7 and I didn't always keep track of my pumping sessions on my phone.
