Hi Danielle,

Welcome to the group, and congrats on your decision to bfeed!

One thing to add - since you have a sensitive stomach I would add the Blessed Thistle and the Fenugreek - that's the role of the BT - to calm the stomach and it has mild milk making properties. It may help. I had a few days of feeling nauseated on the dom but it subsided quickly.

In terms of storage - after you pump just put the whole horn and bottle into the fridge as one unit, then when you pump again take it out and use it. Saves lots of cleaning, etc. I would empty the whole thing into freezer bags at the end of the day and clean the pump then.

Hope this helps!
