Hi All!

LO is ebf so far, but I want to start building a small stash to eventually get away, leave her with DH, grandparents, etc.

I have pumped three times, twice by hand, once with manual pump and got 3oz the hand times, and 4oz with the pump in about 10 minutes each time and tried one bottle, and now have two bottles in the fridge to use. How much should I aim to have in each bottle? I know it's likely dependent on my LO, but is 3-4 oz. a good starting amount for each bottle?

I am better to have too little in a bottle, to then have to add rather than too much in a bottle and some go to waste?

Should I always be pumping into bottle, or can I/should I use the bags I've seen that I can freeze/store to be put in bottle for later?
