### How much milk do you usually have saved by babies 12 months? Do you just feed the stored milk or continue breastfeeding? ---

Hi mama 🙂 it probably all depends on your plans! Do you plan to stop breastfeeding at a certain point but still want her to have access to breast milk? If that’s the case then you’d probably want a decent amount saved.. im not sure on an actual number though. ---

It depends on your preference, I fed all the milk I pumped and did not really store any. I was an exclusive pumper too. 😊 ---

It depends. I stopped at 12 month so my baby could start drinking whole cows milk.
