Pumping ?: using freezer stash

[Tea-rific]

I started pumping when lo was 9 weeks so he could get used to a bottle. I am a teacher and will not be going back to work until August. Even though DH gives him a bottle every night and I only pump then ( sometimes in the am too if i am really engorged) I am building up a pretty big freezer stash.

I want to start rotating in the frozen milk, but I am not sure the best way to go about it.

Suggestions?

Have DH use the oldest frozen milk for his nightly bottle. Freeze everything you pump.

I agree with pp. I am also a teacher with a big freezer stash. I will use the oldest to thin purees/cereal when he starts solids in the next week or so.

What they all said. Freeze the new milk, use the oldest.

I rotate mine slightly differently from what others are suggesting. I make bottles that are half fresh and half frozen and freeze the leftover fresh. I do this because at least half of what LO gets is expressed milk and I want some of it to be "current", meaning having the appropriate nutrient blend and antibodies

Thank you for all the advice!
