anydoodle on "to stop or not - question about frozen milk too"

Hi Everyone -

I'm sort of in the process of weaning - even though I've just been an exclusive pumper for a couple of months. My DS is only 6 months but we've struggled the ENTIRE time and now I'm getting blocked ducts every couple of days and almost no milk when I pump. I've had to supplement 2 of his bottles with formula a day and he only takes 4-5 bottles daily.

Here is my question - I had a much better supply at the start of nursing and have quite a bit of frozen milk. But now that DS is in daycare and I"m back to work I was wondering if the immunities in frozen milk are the same as in fresh. If the immunity is gone in the frozen milk, I may try to keep going. Unfortunately, now I can pump for 20 minutes and sometimes only get 1-2 oz total. Sometimes I can get 3, 4, or 5 total but never more than that. It's become frustrating and time consuming without good results.

So if you all know whether my little guy will get the benefit of my immunity in the frozen milk, I may hang it up Now I don't know what to do -

Either way, I wish it had gone better but I guess we had better luck than some

Thanks for the info/advice-
Ike
