How many ounces are in your stash & how often are you pumping?

I'm wondering how many oz I should be stashing at this point.  We have about 90 oz saved.  

How many weeks is your baby and how many ounces are in your stash?

How many times a day are you pumping and how much are you getting per pumping session?

    How many weeks is your baby and how many ounces are in your stash?

    12 weeks. In my deep freeze stash I have about 675 oz.

    How many times a day are you pumping and how much are you getting per pumping session? 

    I pump three times during my work day (8-5pm) and get 5-6 oz average. In the morning pump session I get more than 6 oz. and it slightly declines each pump session

    We have 400+ 5 oz bags (but I EP so that's why so many)

    DD is 6 months

    I pump between 5-13 oz a day, pumping 4-6x's a day.

    Just wanted to say that I think its pretty impressive you already have 90oz saved at 3 weeks.

    I have about 80-100 in the freezer and usually 5-15 in the fridge at any given time. Right now I am exclusively pumping and my LO is 2.5 weeks old.

    I pump 6-7x daily and I get anywhere from 5-7 per session usually. I'd like to get back into BFing during the day and pumping just at night but I'll have to see.  I am having clogged milk duct issues on my left side.  It's driving me nuts :/

    he's almost 3 months.

    maybe 200 oz? 250?

    i pump twice a day a work, but he drinks that milk the next day. i add to my stash by pumping the boob he doesn't eat from when he wakes up in the middle of the night, plus first thing in the am.

    so i usually pump about 4 times a day on weekdays, and i nurse on demand while i am home.

    in the evenings at work, i usually get about 6 oz per pump, 3 oz from each side. in the middle of the night and first thing in the morning i get about 4 oz from the one side i pump.
