Now that I have started breastfeeding I seem to be producing milk much faster than when I was just exclusively pumping!

However, also remember that some daycares may have policies in place, so check on that first. Also consider that having to dump from bag to bottle causes another chance for them to spill that liquid gold and you may have to drive more over in the middle of your day.

I will say that the daycares I've worked at/taken my child to were more than happy to keep some "backup bags" in the freezer for emergencies just like that. Just don't forget they are there!

So breastmilk is good for up to 6 months if you store it in a freezer towards the back, not in the door. I believe it’s good for 5-8 days in the fridge, but if you take it from the freezer to the fridge you need to use it within 24 hours. So if you want to freeze some ahead of time and then pack some bags of milk for daycare every morning that would work. Just don’t forget to remind them to put the milk bags straight into the fridge. I have heard some ladies talk about the daycare forgetting to take it out of the diaper bag and it just sat in there and went bad. 😩
