I am thinking about starting to express and freeze milk for Shae for when we start her on some rice cereal in a month or two's time.
She feeds every 90 min or so at the moment and only one side per feed except at night when I feed her to sleep (over 90 mins usually)

When would be the best time to express some milk? I have a little medela swing which is useful, but how much should I express at a time? when should I be doing it? how many times a day to start "stock piling it"

I really have no idea what I am doing or how I should be doing it and I know all logic tells me the more stimulation the more milk but I am feeling a tad anxious about possibly ruining my supply, IF I see there is not much milk I may worry ITMS

Its a really dumb thing and believe me when I say I am in no rush to start her on any solids but I want to be ready for when she decides its time ...... which leads me to another question .... how will I know WHEN is the right time to start introducing stuff? other mums in my MG are already into solids but their bubs are formula fed and I kind of want to delay solids as longs as I can ( because I don't want my baby to grow up )

How did you EBM and when did you do it??

How and When did your baby try their first solids??
