All the answers to the questions that surely bother you about storing and preserving breast milk after pumping

A few basic rules before storing breast milk:

  1. Before transferring breast milk to the storage bags, it is important to make sure your hands are clean.
  2. Use sterile, BPA-free bags that are designed for this purpose, approved for use for breast milk by the Ministry of Health, can withstand the freezer, and have a hermetic closure, preferably double, so that the milk does not spill when you open it. For information on Ardo freezer bags
  3. It is recommended to keep small amounts of 60 ml, 40 ml, 80 ml, and a few 90 ml bags, so you don't have to thaw a large amount if you don't need it and then throw it away.
  4. It is important to note the freezing date on the packaging.
  5. It is recommended kingtoptoto to leave room in the bag because the frozen milk increases its volume in the bag. If you flatten the bags, you can stack them on top of each other, thus saving space.

How long can breast milk be stored?

You have expressed milk and have not yet given it to your baby. Leave the bottle at room temperature. Recommended storage time: 3-4 hours. If it is a particularly hot day, it is better to put it in the refrigerator and not wait. Room temperature: 16-29 degrees Celsius

Sealed cooler with ice cube

Recommended storage time:  up to 24 hours. The ice cubes should touch the bottles/storage bags. It is important to transfer to the refrigerator as soon as possible. For details on Ardo coolers Expressed breast milk stored in the refrigerator Recommended temperature:  4 degrees or less Recommended storage duration:  up to 3 days. However, under certain conditions: such as very clean conditions of the hands that handled the mother's milk or a clean refrigerator environment and strict adherence to the temperature, it can also be stored for 5-8 days. It is recommended to keep the milk in the back of the refrigerator where the temperature is colder. Frozen and thawed breast milk should be refrigerated at a temperature of  4 degrees or less. Frozen and thawed breast milk can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Breast milk should not be frozen twice.

In a freezer with a separate door or in a separate freezer – deep freeze

Temperature:  -18 degrees Celsius or less. Recommended storage 6-12 months, store in the back of the freezer where the temp. is colder. To the Ministry of Health website Thawing breast milk The first breast milk that we froze, that is, with the older date, should be thawed. Gradual thawing in the refrigerator is recommended, but you can also thaw it with a container of warm water. Not boiling. Do not thaw breast milk in the microwave. You can also hold the frozen bag under warm tap water and thaw the milk. Thawed breast milk can be used up to 24 hours after thawing. If the baby has eaten a portion and left it, this portion can be used again up to two hours after feeding/until the next feeding. It is not recommended to freeze/refrigerate again.

Heating breast milk after thawing

After thawing, and before giving the milk to the baby, it is a good idea to warm the bottle with the milk in a container with lukewarm water so that the milk reaches room temperature. Sometimes after thawing frozen milk or warming breast milk in the refrigerator, we see a separation of the fat from the protein . The breast milk should be stirred in a circular motion, not shaken, after warming to obtain a uniform texture. Before feeding the baby from a warmed bottle, drip 2 drops on the inside of our arm and feel the degree of warmth. Milk that has been thawed from the freezer cannot be refrozen and must be kept in the refrigerator until feeding. By Tsofit Distelman Mirkin, breastfeeding instructor.
