Milk cubes

You probably all know about freezing your breast milk and how convenient it is to have on hand. Heck, you probably even have a stash of those little "Mommy's Milk" freezer bags. Well here's a way to make milk storage even more convenient!


1. Invest in an ice cube tray that holds one-ounce cubes, like this:



2. Pump milk as usual


3. Pour it into your tray and freeze


4. Pop the frozen cubes in a Ziplock, label and return to the freezer


Working in one-ounce increments, you'll always have just the right amount of milk on hand, without having to waste any. This comes in especially handy when your baby starts eating cereal. And the trays are great for baby food making too, but that's for another day...
