pumping for occasional use

[babyface15]

i am ebf and not back to work for another year. I'd like to pump enough to have a few bottles on hand in case i go out a little too long or if.someone will let me sleep in lol.

lo is coming out of a growth spurt so i have an abundance of milk right now. when is the best time to pump and how much can i pump withoutcreating more of an oversupply?

thanks..xxx

I ended up with over supply when my daughter went through her growth spurt and have been block feeding but even with that I pump once in the morning (first thing) on the opposite side that she's eating on and once before I go to bed again on the opposite side she's eating on.. And i try to make sure i don't pump on the same side twice. I have me a nice little stock in the fridge for lazy days but I might have to sacrifice it due to thrush!
