html This is a good site on storage, and you can buy breast milk storage bags. You can freeze milk in them as well.

Google Kelly mom breast milk storage. There's a list with great info regarding BM storage.

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!

Fresh milk can be in the fridge 4-6 days and frozen thawed milk can be in the fridge 24 hours. These are the milk storage guidelines from the LLL.

I wouldn't put it in a water bottle if it were me. I would buy some cheap breast milk freezer bags to have them on hand for the next time. These either tie with a twist tie or they zip closed. You can get a huge amount for a few bucks at Target. Sounds like you are doing great with the breastfeeding!!!!!!

I'm going to get the gerber bottles from walmart. My sister has them & they work fine so i thought I'd try them, but if I'm pumping what bottles would I store the milk in? Or should I just get storage bags?? & if i get storage bags do i just pour the milk in the bottle when im ready to feed? Ugh. So confused lol help!

I'm trying to choose the best breast pump and milk storage system I can find. I travel extensively for work and I'll even be pumping in the car. I found the Kiinde system; which looks awesome. But, I'm not sure what I will be able to express from each breast at each pumping session. Ideally, I would like to pump directly into the storage bag, freeze it, thaw it, and feed directly from the bag. That is how the Kiinde system is intended to be used.

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.

I have a question for all the moms out there. I am 39 weeks tomorrow it will be my second daughter my 1st is now 7 years old. With my 1st I did not breastfeed at all not in the hospital or out of the hospital she was on formula from day one. My question is now with my second I still do not plan on breastfeeding from my breasts it not something thats gonna ever be on my agenda, but I do want to pump and bottle feed.

Thank you :)

My bottles won't fit and I was wondering what did you use to store your breast milk in? I've looked at Walmart and the first years website. Can you use any milk storage bag? I have two bottles that came with the pump can I use them and just pour the milk in the storage bag? Or will that mess up with me pumping?

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?

When I first came home from the hospital I pump and store my breast milk in these sterile storage bags made for breast milk. I will eat oatmeal and take fenugreek tablets to help keep producing milk. You want to keep the baby on the breast as much as possible even if she/he is using you as a pacifier, I noticed skin to skin contact with my little one has helped. My milk supply did decrease while I went back to work.

Put it in the lansinoh storage bags specifically for breast feeding, then label it and stick it in the freezer.

Soo were on a very short budget and I want to breast feed to help with costs n not to mention its healthy for baby and me... My biggest concern is how to store the breast milk. I have an idea to use jelly jars my gram uses to freeze her strawberry jelly she makes... But I don't know if they would bust... I don't plan on filling them to the very tippie top.

U actually freeze breast milk in special bags made for storage

Usually breast pumps come with one or two bottles (depending on whether you got a single or double pump). Once you have pumped dump the milk into breast milk storage bags, or you can pour the milk into what ever type of bottles you and your baby prefer to use.

So i have a babysitter for news eve. And they will be giving my son my breast milk that i have.already pumped. So, i do wanna drink but nit sure how the pumping and dumping works. Like how many times do i have to pump and dump the next day????

so ive got a breast pump just in case but i was wondering if breast milk can go in the firdge and get warmed up when its needed and if it can go in the fridge how long can it stay in there for.

No, hes just very early finding he can play, has anyone blown bubbles at him ? he seems a bit young to copy but who knows ...Is he only on the bottle or are you feeding him breast milk aswell, I ask this because Momma's nipple and a bottle nipple are differant and if he is used to the breast that may be the reason, its probably a little phase and he will be gobbling soon .

Our hospital hands out flyers with breast feeding and milk storage tips when you leave the hospital. I breastfeed but my little one didnt take a bottle so i cant help you with the tips! There are lots of guidelines though like how long in the fridge and or freezer and how long at room temp!

s normal to leak colostrum anywhere from sixteen weeks to not until after baby is born. Breast size has very little to do with your ability to breastfeed successfully. Your boobs will make milk as baby nurses. They aren't storage containers so much as a tap. Take care of yourself, learn about breastfeeding, and sorting yourself with women who've successfully breastfed. You'll be fine!

Lol I got a lot of breast milk storage bags at my shower, and a double pump breast pump. And if she will most likey only eat 2-3 times then I feel a lot better. Haha I'm sure ill get some sort of system down.

This time around i bought a pump and storage bags since i will be returning to work six weeks later. I am aiming to pump my breast a few days prior to due date and store milk so when Lil man arrives, I'm already flowing without any problems. Any suggestions or comments from experts?
