Lansinoh Milk Bags

It seems just yesterday that I was very upset about my limited milk supply but today, I've got the whole freezer compartment - okay I'm exaggerating, only about half it - filled with frozen milk!

It's not that my supply suddenly increased by a lot but it's that Baby has been drinking very little! It's also because we were out mostly during the weekends, thus allowing the EBM to accumulate.


Pictures taken at 8 Nov 09. I have 4 times more now! Imagine 4 columns of milk bags staked together... :D

Was initially using the Medela bottles to store the milk in fridge but when we decided it's time to freeze them, we realised that we have not enough storage bottles! Wanted to get the Medela milk bags but then, DC's friend recommended this brand of milk bag. I have also read good comments about this bag. The Lansinoh bags are so much cheaper than the Medela bags, has double seal that prevents leakage and the best thing is that they are easily stackable, thus saving a lot of freezer space (Now, I'm sharing the freezer compartment with my MIL who stores food there)! We never looked back since and I'm happy to say that I'm on my third pack now...


Picture taken on 17 Sep 09. Now, instead of allocating the exact amount per feed in a bottle, we now fill up the whole milk into taller bottles. This stores more and saves bottles.

Now, though Baby has no complaints on the frozen milk that we stored in the glass bottles, I have yet to let him try those in the milk bags. Heard that some Baby reject because of the "metallic" smell.. hope mine won't!!!
