If EBF do you have a small stash as well just in case?

Question

Answer

Yes in case I want to go out for the day and have sometime else look after him for a few hours. An emergency backup supply of a few bags in the freezer is always a good idea

Answer

Yup. About 3 days of milk.

Answer

Yes with both of my exclusively breastfed babies I made sure to have a stash because I like to have some child free time every once in a while. I'm also an overproducer and get really uncomfortable if I don't pump

Answer

I used to but it’s been in the freezer too long now so I feel like I’d have to pump monthly for something she may not use.: I have some sachets of a gentle formula just in case

Answer

I had a huge one but we ended up never using it once I was able to switch to EBF. I pumped in the beginning due to latch issues.

Answer

I really want to, but my LO is eating almost every hour and I honestly can't find the energy pumping on top of that. Plus, due to EBF I'd have to pump multiple times and put small amounts together. I tried that, but with everything going on I forget theres something in the fridge and I don't like wasting bm that way. But I'd really love to be able to be gone even just for half a day. Well, maybe in the future when my LOs feeds have more space in between.
