In case you're still muddleheaded, these are bags of liquid gold! Or so I say. ;D
I painstakingly (and obsessively) squeezed my udder just so I could stockpile the milk for emergencies. Back in those days when Jeddy was still pimply, wrinkled, and demanding and to be fed every two hours, I pumped between feeds and in the middle of the night for months in order to have at least 7 days worth of milk in the freezer. It doesn't help that my boobies do not respond well to pumps, both electric and manual, and have to pump several times a day just to fill one bag. And being the paranoid dettol queen, it was wash and sterilize after every pump. It's a wonder why I didn't go crazy.
Still, Jeddy did not take a single bag of these milk. Cheh!
But honestly I thank God for taking such good care of us, that those 'emergencies' never happened, and I was able to breastfeed Jeddy all these months without a hiccup. I am also very very thankful that although he's not been on the bottle for more than 10 times since his birth, he does not reject it. And I was able to steal some afternoons away, leaving my parents or aunt to give him a formula feed.
That said, these milk are going into the trash and ice-cream is going into that deep-freeze compartment. Hurrah!
