started pumping today- What a WEIRD experience!
question: if boober 1 makes 1 pounce, and #2makes 2 ounces, can i combine both bottles to make 1 three ounce bag and stick that in the freezer?

Re: one more pumping question-
You can always combine the milk from the same pumping session. I also used to combine milk from different sessions. If you combine them from multiple sessions, just make sure the freshly pumped milk is cooled off before combining it with other milk.

sorry I think your choice of words is brilliant
Def a weird experience! Do you feel like a cow yet? I had to cover myself up, with one of those breastfeeding aprons so I wouldn't see whats going on. I felt like a cow being milked.

Re: one more pumping question-
yep- feeling udderly fabulous. sorry
so i tried again after babys second feeding and i got like, 3 drops, so i just dumped the milk down the drain. did i do something wrong? lord knows i dont drink enough water...maybe that will help. or maybe it was just too soon after the first one?
in any event, i think ill continue to use the milking machine every morning after the first feeding, and build a little stash for when i go back to work for the last week of school, and ill try to continue throughout the summer etc and nurse when im home
does that sound normal?

I never had luck pumping after feedings (unless she only ate from one side). The way I built my stash was to pump late at night (a few hours after her last feeding).
