    So...yea I cried

    So I just knocked over 200ml of EBM getting up from my chair after after a pumping session. Stupidly I hadn't put the lid on the collection bottle yet after unhooking it from the pumps . I only have 20ml left now. As someone trying to build up a freezer stash and this being my first spare bottle...yea, I cried, a lot. Stupid hormones

    Lol I did the same over a 3ml syringe of colostrum twice

    I saw a saying on fb
    " whoever said don't cry over spilt milk never had to express breast milk"

    I so think you should cry over spilt milk!
    That seriously sucks.
    Nobody would throw away that much liquid gold without a few tears so yep have a cry and get back to the pump!
    Really it gives a new meaning to "under the pump" doesn't it?
