FTM pumping&storing question

Hi ladies, 

I'm BFing ATC and have been pumping 2-3 times/day.  I was just wondering how many oz I should freeze in each bag? I'm using the Lansinoh bags.

Thanks!

Re: FTM pumping&storing question

  • My DS typically takes 3 or 4 oz bottles, but it's nice to have a mix of options.  I went through a bunch of 1 oz bags of milk when my DS went through a growth spurt at daycare.  They would just thaw a bag and give it to him in addition to his regular bottle.

    Definitely freeze in full ounce portions though.  I made the mistake of doing a few 2.5 or 3.5 ounce bags and they were a pain to try and round out.

  • Anywhere from 1 to 5. There's no certain amount.

  • You can put it in any size you want.  I did really like having 1 oz and 2 oz sizes especially when DS was going through a growth spurt.
