Only about 30 Lately I have been so bad about pumping
I have the same exersaucer...
Can your LO reach the little thing they step on... at first mine couldn't and now he can, but he pushes it down and stands on his tip toes and it kinda bothers me.
No, she can't reach yet. My BIL put some phone books under it to raise up the little platform. We just tried her out in it on Christmas and she wasn't too interested in it yet.
DS loves it. I tried the phone book thing... I usually move it in the middle of the living room when he is in there so it got annoying setting up books every time....also, I put a blanket behind DS because he has thrown himself back in it and I am afraid he is going to hit his head on the toys...
We had about 300oz now. I used alot before DS started solids.

Probably like 10-15. Ha. I've never been able to pump much so I use most of it right away. That actually reminds me that some of it is about to expire so I should use it today.
I have about 300 oz in the deep freezer. I had a major over supply in the first few months so I saved all the extra milk. Now I only produce what she normally eats during the day.....maybe 4-5 oz extra on some days!!

this is the same for me. I could pump on the weekends or at night, but I don't. Way too busy, so I just have the frozen stuff on rotation for Mondays.
I have 500+. I pumped after every feeding while on mat leave. Now, I try to pump after DD nurses in the am (5oz), I pump twice @ work (10oz each time) and I pump after DD eats before I go to bed (5oz) just so I don't have to use my freezer stash.
This- although my stash has dwindled this past week because we were out a lot- he got more bottles than usual and I didn't keep on top of pumping some days. Plus, we had a Christmas party one night at our house and he got frozen milk instead of fresh milk at bedtime because I was drinking
maybe 15-20... he won't take a bottle so it would go to waste... i am hoping to use some of it in cereal when we start it in a few weeks just so i don't have to dump it!!
Since I returned to work in mid November, I have been unable to pump as much as she takes in. I only work three days a week and am only away from her for about six hours each day, but still it has used up my stash - which was pretty small to begin with. I have two bottles of fresh BM in the fridge and she will use that today and then we are going to start using formula.
I'm sad... and worried. I will continue to pump at work and EBF when I am not at work, but it still sucks.
I'm so jealous. I lost my freezer supply to a power outage about a month ago, and I've been barely keeping up until Christmas...I finally put about 4 bags of 2-4 oz each in there, thank God. I think I might make it to 6 months after all. And I'm still calling it EBF even though I had to supplement one day with about 6 oz of Enfamil.
And PSA for EBFers (that I've said a million times): make sure to always keep a little stash in each freezer...don't put it all in the chest freezer...
Um, yeah. The Bump be too crazy for pics of my kid.
A few hundred. Maybe 300-500? I pumped a ton for the first month while DS was in the hospital, but now that we are mostly breastfeeding with 1-2 bottles of BM per day, my supply is now basically even with his needs. I've been trying to do one pumping session each night before I go to bed just to increase my supply a little more before I go back to work since I know I will not be able to pump enough times a day then, but I don't like to pump. I should have enough to get to 6 months (as long as DH doesn't keep leaving milk out on the counter covernight, which is my goal.
I think we have about 2,000. But I EP and my supply has been awesome so far (**knocks on wood**). My goal is to pump until DS is 9 mos. or so, then feed from the freezer 'till he's one year.
