Quick Poll - How much milk in your freezer?

Do you ever get to a point where you feel like you have enough? Enough for what, I don't know (well I do, I'm convinced she's going to strike on me). So just thought I'd ask around and see how much you've all got stashed away for a rainy day. Also how old, are there any big toddlers out there, with mothers unable to throw it away?

I'm currently not on a lot as we moved countries just over two weeks ago. Believe we've just crossed the 40oz mark and not sure where to stop.

I used to have loads as until ds was about 9 months I was freezing 100 mls or so per day. The aim was to have enough for when I was atwork and to go away overnight if necessary. Then I did and used it all. Now rebuilding for some evenings out soon. How many months do people generally keep it for?

Just under a litre, 4 bottles of 220mls.

I have 6 x 6oz bottles but only because i am going to work next week for 2 days and my mum is looking after him and will probably need to use all of it...

i don't need for evening out as he feds at 6.30pm and then doesn't need feeding until i wake him for his late feed. if i was late back it wouldn't matter.

if it wasn't for the work thing i would have though 3 x 6oz was enough.

he is 12 weeks old.

3 ice cubes (I don't have much luck with a pump)

None cos it won't store because of excess lipase. Even if I scald it first.

I don't actually want to leave ds2 anyway, so it's not a prob for me and if I were to eg have an accident or die or something, my dh knows to phone my sister who is also breastfeeding and she would help out.

Can I have your sister's phone number too, mawbroon?
