Decided not to have a freezer stash, and you should think about it too

The term “feed the baby, not the freezer”. I decided to take this seriously for a few reasons, 1; Frozen milk does not taste as good as fresh milk. My baby will drink it but she doesn’t like it. 2; It affords me day to day convenience. I usually will have 1 or 2 bottles extra a day, and I decided to just keep it in the fridge so I can “take a pump off” and just rest. Or go hang out with family or just walk. It gives me a little bit of peace every day. I used to be obsessed with building a stash and would bag, power pump, etc.

Now that I’ve let go of my stash, pumping is much more enjoyable for me. My only objective is to just feed her for the next feeding, and if I have fridge milk, even easier for me!

Just wanted to provide some insight if anyone else is a “just enougher” like me, it’s okay to just make it til the next bottle! Don’t worry about that stash. 🤍
