For those who don't have to work full time outside of the house (or part-time for that matter) probably save more not ever needing bottles, liners, ebm bags, pump, pump parts, etc. I don't want to think about what I've spent on that. -------------------- *~Karen~* wife to hubby, Ryan Douglas mommy to Kylie (9) and Megan (6.5) and furbabies Gavin, Buster, Sox, and Hailey

I figured I would save $1000 in a year, but then I realized that she would be eating larger ammounts as she got older, so it would be way more than that.

Wow! This gets me even more motivated to BF our next one!
