When you want to stop expressing
Storing breast milk
If you want to take a break or
stop pumping, you can place
your silicone breast pump on
a clean dry surface. To keep it
upright, the silicone pump has
a suction base that will attach
to the surface and prevent any
accidental spills.
Pull the tab on the base to
release the suction to allow you
to lift the silicone breast pump
up, or tilt it at a 45° angle
before lifting.
•
When you want to freeze
breast milk, allow space at
the top of your bottle for
it to expand. It’s easiest
to freeze breast milk in
individual feed quantities of
60-125ml 2-4oz.
•
Your breast milk may
separate out into layers
when you store it. Give it a
shake to remix it thoroughly
before feeding your baby.
Don’t pull your silicone breast
pump vertically from a surface
that it’s stuck to without
releasing the suction as you
may spill your milk.
