freezing ebm
Right im going to embark on an expressing mission, expressing once a day to hopefully get a supply of ebm so i can return to one of my jobs (20hours p/month) as maternity pay is poo. will only be leaving l.o for 4 hours max but would like to have some ebm milk in for oh to feed lo. How am i best storing it in the freezer and in what quantities so my ebm wont be wasted?
any advice would be grateful thanks ladies x

I guess another way would be to use ice cube trays and establish how many cubes your LO takes per feed by trial and error, then convert this to oz and use ebm bags to store it in this quantity.
There's a lot of really useful info here:

(particularly the leaflet on expressing & storing). HTH!
