Ok. DD is due any time from 2 to 5 weeks. It's possible that she might have BF issues, and as I apparently have GD there's also a chance that she might have unstable blood sugar for a day or so, so I've been advised to try and express and freeze some colostrum in advance.
My question is, and I breastfed/expressed for years but it's been a LONG time, obviously I'm only going to get a little at a time, I have milk storage bags, can I put what I get in a bag, freeze it, add the next bit on top and put it back? I'm thinking not, or shall I just freeze lots of tiny bits?
Also, how many times a day should I be trying to express?
