Extra milk

Hi all! What are you doing with all of the extra breast milk if you have any? I am freezing it but I have a surplus beyond what my baby needs. Not sure what to do with the extra.

I would keep freezing since your supply may drop when you get your period back. But maybe you’re making a lot more milk than I did!

I donated my milk to the hospital and they gave me gift cards for like $250

Keep it for milk baths, skin flare ups, cradle cap! There are so many uses for your milk, mama. It's really liquid gold. You can also take milk shots if you are starting to feel sick! You can also make soap out of it. Know anyone with eczema? Give it to them if they are cool with it ❤️ it expires in the freezer after 6 months

If you gradually pump less your body will make less milk and you can reduce down to the amount you actually need
