11367320 tn?1421799959 I was always told by my health visitor 5 days in the fridge (make sure you keep it at the back of the fridge and not in the door), 5 months in the freezer, also to defrost breast milk by putting it in the fridge over night.

Avatar f tn Hi ladies! Does anyone know if I can store Breast milk in ziplock freezer bags? The bags I have made specifically for breast milk don't close very well and I worry about freezer burn. If you have any advice I'd love to hear it!
Avatar f tn With my first child I did breast feeding for a year, but when I tried transitioning her from breast to bottle, it was A PAIN! She refused to take the bottle, so now I want to try to do both.. I bought a breast pump, so I'm wondering how does the whole freezing your milk process work? How long is it good for? How do you unfreeze it? Or boil it? Thank you for your time!
Avatar f tn Frozen breast milk is good in the freezer for up to 6months make sure you date all of them!
Avatar f tn Breast milk has the rule of threes. Three hours out of the fridge. Three days in the fridge. Three weeks in a built in fridge freezer and three months in a proper freezer. You can get bags to store the milk in that doesn't take up heaps of space when you put them in the freezer. My mum told me not to store milk in the fridge door, I can't remember why but think it has something to do with not getting cool enough.

3054705 tn?1348415479 If u freeze you milk in milk bags I believe its good for a year. To unfreeze your milk heat up a cup of water not to hot! And place the bag in the cup to unfreeze. I lovedfreezing my milk because u can store it away for along time. And take it on the go .

Avatar f tn You can freeze the breast milk that you pump and save it for baby. It's good in the freezer for 6 months.
266539 tn?1281402152 you can store up 6 months in a normal freezer, but milk should be far back in freezer as possible and definitely not stored it the door.
Avatar f tn Ohh okay I jist bought a maternity bra thinking it was a nursing bra I will have to return it and look for some nursing bras. Thank you that was helpful. And about the milk storage bag do I just buy them and put my milk in there after I pump and put them in the freezer?
Avatar f tn How long can you freeze breast milk? I'm having twins and plan on pumping more than actually having them feed off my actual breast just so my husband and mom can help feed them as well. I'd like to make my own baby food and know that breast milk can be used in some foods. So, how long can you freeze breast milk for? Thanks ladies! And congrats!
229857 tn?1319029907 you can store it in the fridge for 2-3 days just make sure you date the milk also it can go in the freezer i think for upto 6 months and it is good to use the breast milk storage bags so you can date them also and then you can take them straight from the freezer and put the bag in the baby bottle warmer. when you buy the breast pump there should be a little book about breast feeding and everything that comes with it.
435139 tn?1255460391 I used it mostly to take the chill off of my expressed breast milk that had been in the freezer and thawed in the fridge. When we switched to formula, I made each bottle fresh at room temp and it was good enough. My best friend's daughter wanted her bottles warm though so she wound up having to buy a travel warmer for her car.
Avatar f tn Never thought of this till now, what are you suppose to do with breast milk if you don't breast feed??? Does it go away on it's own?
Avatar f tn I breast fed my daughter and I always had extra to put in the fridge. I just had to pump at the time she usually had to feed and I kept producing alot of milk.
10720243 tn?1415582269 t know what happened but the bags opened or exploded or something all over the freezer. I was down to like 5 bags of milk. Right now I have 4 bags in the freezer but each only has between 4-6 ounces and she eats 3 at a time. I'm so stressed I'm rambling.
