9.2 Important information for handling breast milk
Warning!
To ensure adequate
hygiene at all times:
If transporting chilled breast milk
make sure that it stays chilled at all
times, otherwise the milk could go
off and be harmful to your baby.
Use a cooler bag with ice packs, for
example.
Do not use a microwave to defrost
breast milk, as this can destroy
valuable nutrients and damage the
container (risk of explosion).
Uneven heating may result in
scalding!
Defrosted, warmed or unused milk
must be disposed of and not
refrozen.
1. To achieve the correct drinking
temperature of approx. 37 °C, put the
container of defrosted breast milk in the
baby food warmer.
Caution!
The container must be open to
prevent a pressure build-up as the milk
warms up.
2. Shake the milk gently before feeding so
that milk and milk fat are properly mixed
again.
3. If you express breast milk more than
once within a period of 24 hours, the
freshly expressed milk may be added to
the previously cooled breast milk.
However freshly expressed milk must be
cooled down before being added to milk
that is already cool. The temperatures
must be the same (cold on cold).
Notes:
• Consult your health visitor, midwife,
doctor or pharmacist for detailed
information about long-term storage.
• You can find more information about
breastfeeding on our NUK website
