Storing of colostrum

Any mommies above 36 weeks are/have been expressing and storing their colostrum for their newborn already? I started since 37 weeks and so far, I've saved up a total of 120ml of colostrum as of today, 13th march. Since I'm due today and baby's not ready to come out yet, I'm hoping to save as much as possible. So exciting!
