Back at work next month. How big a stash of expressed milk did you really need?

Everything I read says start building a freezer stash early. I've been expressing once a day for two weeks, I have a small shelf of bags, and I'm already anxious it isn't enough. He's 3 months. A caregiver will be with him on my office days. How much did you have before going back, and how much did you end up using? I suspect the answer is 'less than you think', but I'd like to hear it from people who've done it.

    We froze far more than we used. Half of it got thrown out in the end 🤷 After the first couple of weeks my partner expressed at work and that covered most days.
