How often to pump to create a good frozen stash??

Question

I've seen posts on here where women have freezers full of milk bags. My daughter is 4 weeks and I barely have 19 bags frozen. It seems whenever I pump she's hungry and I give it to her in a bottle. How often are you pumping and do you pump after feedings?

Answer

I pump every 3 hours. I get 5-7oz a pump. I don't have a huge stash but it's growing bit by bit.

Answer

Sounds like you have a great stash! I pump once a day. I give one bottle of breast milk a day (about 4ounce) so I try to pump 6-8 ounces so I can store a little. Honestly tho I'm running out of room. I would say if you can do a few ounces a week that's plenty..
