Milk Bank

20110328-053213.jpgWe got tickets to Merle Fest for Christmas so I’ve had plenty of time to stash milk. I pump once a night for storage. So far we have 83 oz. I think we could easily have an additional 90 oz for a total of 173 oz. Wow that’s a lot of milk!!!

I think that should be enough. He eats between 6 to 8x per 24 hours. I’m guessing eats about 3 to 4 oz each time since that’s about what I get when I pump. So I figure I’ll go up to estimating 5 oz for each feeding since he’ll be a little older.

So…. 40 oz each day X 4 days = 160 oz (and that’s an over estimate at 8 feedings of 5 oz each) So I am hoping he will have way more than enough.

That and we will leave mid day on Thursday and probably drive home early Sunday so he won’t need a full day’s worth of milk for Thurs and Sun.
