unless its 6oz of your own milk that you just took 20 min in the middle of the night to pump and your babe is crying from hunger and you don't have formula anymore... then yes..... feel free to cry. (
Bummer, I cried over spilling just 1oz! I'd have a breakdown over 6oz. You can get 6oz in 20 minutes? You ROCK!!
I'm am a EPer and at night I take a 6 hour break in between pumping so the milk builds up. Usually I pump ever 3 hours and I get around 4 oz. but last night I had a big dinner and drank a gallon of tea and right befor bed I had a bowl of oats with cinnamon apple. Yum!
I was really surprised I got 6 oz and really happy because that would be two meals since my little one eats 3oz.
That's the worst! I feel your pain! Once while pumping in th car, I spilled 3oz all over my lap :-L Not only did I loose all that milk, it looked like I peed my pants!
I feel like an odd ball, i pump and just throw it down the drain all the time, after she eats ofcourse.
@DreaMak, why are you dumping milk? I have a freezer stash for what we don't need right now. If you don't want to save it, you may also be able to donate it.

You could donate it to a national company! That's what I did while nursing my first and they paid me a dollar an ounce
