Storing breast milk

Warning: Only store breast milk collected with a clean and disinfected pump.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge (not in the door) for up to 48 hours. Expressed milk should
be refrigerated immediately. If you store milk in the fridge to add to during the day, only add milk
that has been expressed into a clean and disinfected bottle or breast milk container. Breast milk
can be stored in the freezer for up to three months as long as it is kept in either disinfected bottles
fitted with a disinfected screw ring and sealing disc or in disinfected storage cups with a disinfected
lid. Clearly label the bottle or storage cup with the date and time of expression and use older breast
milk first.
If you intend to feed your baby with the expressed breast milk within 48 hours, you can store the
breast milk in the fridge in an assembled Philips Avent bottle or storage cup. Unscrew the bottle or
storage cup and remove it from the pump body.
1 Insert a disinfected sealing disc into a disinfected screw ring and screw this onto the bottle
(Fig. 15). Seal the teat with the cap.
2 Assemble a disinfected teat and screw ring onto the bottle (Fig. 16) or storage cup according to
the separate instructions provided with the bottle or storage cup and seal the teat with the cap.
3 In case a storage cup is included with the manual breast pump, screw the lid onto the storage
cup. Make sure you properly close it to avoid leakage (Fig. 17).

Feeding your baby expressed breast milk
You can feed your baby with breast milk from Philips Avent bottles and storage cups:
1 If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.
Note: In case of an emergency, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.
2 Heat the bottle or storage cup with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water or
in a bottle warmer.
3 Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle or remove the lid from the storage cup.
4 If you are using a storage cup, screw the adapter ring onto the cup.
5 Screw a disinfected screw ring with disinfected teat onto the bottle or onto the storage cup with
adapter ring.
Do's
-
Always check the temperature of the milk before you feed it to your baby.
-
Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.
Don'ts
-
Never heat milk in a microwave, as this can cause uneven heating, which can lead to hot spots in
the milk. It may also destroy nutrients in the milk.
-
Never immerse a frozen storage cup in boiling water, as this may cause it to crack.
-
Never fill a storage cup with boiling water. Let the water cool down for 20 minutes before you
pour it into the storage cup.
