Storing breastmilk in the Pump In Style

up to four bottles of breastmilk.
As soon as breastpumping is finished, place the
breastmilk bottle or bag in the cooler bag with the ice
pack. If the ice pack is frozen solid, it will safely cool
your breastmilk for up to 12 hours. When you return home transfer the
bottles to the refrigerator or freezer.
Defrosting
Thaw milk overnight in the refrigerator, or hold the bottle under warm
•
running water to quickly thaw. You can also place the sealed
container in a bowl of warm water for 20 minutes to bring
it to body temperature.
Thawed milk is safe in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Do not refreeze.
