6. Practical tips
Wrap the cleaned and dry parts in a clean cloth and store them in a container when
not in use.
6.1 Storing breast milk
Breast milk can be stored as follows:
•
Freshly expressed at room temperature (16-29°C) 3-4 hours
•
In the rear of the fridge (below 4°C) 3 days
•
In the freezer (-18°C) 6 months
Fill the used bottles or containers to two thirds only and write down the fill date.
Instead of a bottle, you can also use our specially designed
mamivac
®
breast milk
freezer bags [REF 282100]. Do not defrost frozen breast milk in the microwave,
but at room temperature. Place the bottle or bag in warm water (37°C) as required.
After defrosting, gently shake the container or bag to mix the milk.
