I've got 167oz of milk in my freezer!

I seriously thought I had way less than that. I mean, that's a TON of breastmilk! That's over 5 straight days worth of milk! And by the end of today, I'll have another 5oz bag, and tomorrow morning I'll add another 12oz from tonight's pumpings... I'm in SHOCK, I never pumped this well with either of my last two.

Well, if I ever go out for a whole day I know DH has MORE than enough milk for her!

    I pump at 10:30, then between 1-3am, then again around 6 (if she wakes for that feeding) and then the next feeding after that, usually around 8:30am starts breastfeeding. So maybe 203 times a night I pump, but I have a Milkies milk saver and catch milk in that throughout the day. I generally catch 5oz a day and put that all in one bag to freeze before I go to bed. The milk I express at night goes downstairs with me in the morning, and I save a 3oz bottle for DD for that night. I don't think I do too badly. I've noticed on mornings I eat oatmeal for breakfast I tend to express more milk that night...

    Share the wealth! I haven't started my stash yet but think I might Monday (tomorrow is just too crazy) so that I can at least go out on a date with my DH soon. I am just afraid I won't be able to get much at a time, last time I tried I got 1 oz, but that was a over a week ago.

    I did NOT pump this well with either of my other two. With my first, I was lucky to get one whole ounce out of both sides each time. I think it's because I started pumping so early this time, I waited til almost 5 wks with #1 and 8wks with #2.

    That is awesome! I manage to get 4-5oz per pumping session sometimes I only get 3oz though.  I started pumping right after we got out of the hospital and I think that really helped too.

    If I would have kept up with pumping I would probably have a insane stash right a long with you.

    My body was producing milk like a mad woman and I was getting roughly 8 oz a pumping session but then I backed off of it because I was having to pump every 2 hours to avoid engorgement and it wasn't very logical when it came to a busy life schedule. So I made my supply back off and I am lucky to 3 oz now.

    Figured out that I hate, hate pumping though. Thank goodness DS seems to have mastered latching on.
