I thought you were going to say your baby drank 130 oz in a day, and was like yeah right troll.

That is insane though!

Hahahaha I love that that's exactly how I feel with my let down

I trying to imagine. I'd really like to know how she did it. I've always thought I've had over supply, and I've overflowed the big bottles while pumping. What did this woman pump into? How baby times a day did she do it? So many questions

This!  I just picture her pumping, but rather than pumping into bottles, I picture her with a bowl in her lap and the milk just freely dripping (trickling? Flowing?) into the bowl.

My personal best is 41 oz. in a day and I thought that was "good"... Just whoa. Wonderboobs.

I think I have gotten a max of 80 oz once or twice but I am feeding twins. That's amaze balls.

I told @KatieGummow once she pumped a big gulp a day. Mad respect, lady.

For donating I would guess @TallaB has the record. Anyone have a higher number? Last I heard she'd donated almost 700 oz to a friend with twins and was EBFing her own kid. And that was, like, a month ago so her number's prob a lot higher now. Go Boobs!

Me? I'm happy with my 2-7 oz per night for stash.

Edit for awkward spacing.

Aw shucks, thanks ladies. Love the visual @purespark! Looks like @LolaDair‌ pwned me!

Nah, just had an additional little production increaser. I never pumped for my twins but always had a pretty regular 35-40ozs a day for my singletons. So I guess boobs are just good at math,

Lol at boob math! I guess it beats them being able to tell when it's raining!

Thanks, birl! I've got another shipment ready to go, so I will estimate its around 900oz. Going back to work has dropped my supply a bit, I just dont have the same time to dedicate. Sorry, twins!

@TallaB‌ - can you head over to the low supply thread and ship us all some milk? Thanks

We have just over 800oz in our freezer to donate after we get moved, at my peak of pumping in the NICU I was getting 60 oz a day in 5 pumps.  When I would bring in the bottles to the nurses, the LC would always comment on "Bessie is here!"  I had a super production problem, which made it all that much harder on me when DS couldn't drink the milk anymore.
