Milk needs to be pumped and transferred into bags regularly (using a pumping method that suits you). You can transfer your milk into the bag by using a bottle. It’s useful to note the date and time of the pumping session on the bag, this way you know which milk to use first. This is especially important if your baby goes to daycare and the breast milk is give to the baby by someone other than you. Breast milk should be defrosted in warm water or by placing in the lower part of the fridge for about eight hours. The milk needs to be given to the baby at the appropriate temperature.
