Pumping and Storing Breastmilk
After you express breastmilk it’s important that it be properly stored. Proper storage prevents contamination and spoilage. Your options include disposable bags designed specifically for breastmilk or opaque plastic bottles.
Sterilize bottles before your first use; after that you can wash and rinse them by hand with dish soap and hot water or in the dishwasher. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, breastmilk may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours or in the rear of the freezer compartment (in a plastic bottle or breastmilk storage bag) for one month. Whether fresh or frozen it’s best to use the breastmilk as soon as possible.
