My twin girls are due in 10 weeks and I thought I would start pumping in the next week or so since twins usually come early. By the way, my gestational carrier is pregnant with our twins <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Question: How soon should I stop taking my BCP before starting to pump? I bought a PIS. Also, if / when / hopefully when I am producing milk to freeze, what type of freezing containers do you recommend? Thanks!

Some of us took our last pill then started pumping the next day. Remember it does take a little while for the pill to be totally out of your system so you may not see any milk right away. The breast milk bags are the best for freezing. Laurie~Craig's wife~Mom to 4 blessings nurtured at the breast CJ(24)Travis(21)Beka~adopted(9)Rab(6)
