Description
Medela Breast Milk Storage bags are specially designed to store, carry and warm expressed breast milk, and they are easy to use and hygienic. When breastfeeding and pumping milk for baby, there’ll be times when you need to store it to use later; for example, if you’re breastfeeding and working fulltime, going out for an evening, or simply want a stock of expressed breast milk for another caregiver to feed your baby while you take a break. In addition, if you have an oversupply of breast milk it’s a good idea to store it safely rather than wasting it expressed breast milk retains most of its health-giving benefits, so it’s better for your baby than formula. Medela breast milk storage bags stand upright for easy handling, yet can lie flat once sealed, for storage in the fridge, plus they can be frozen, too. Milk storage bags also make life easier later, when you want to defrost and warm your frozen breast milk to feed your baby. It comes with a handy transport pouch that keeps them together and organized without taking up lots of space. The pouch is also printed with clear, illustrated instructions, so you can feel confident when using the bags on the go. There’s no need to worry about leaks, either, as each breast milk bag has double zip protection and double walls, and the seams are heat sealed to prevent tearing, splitting or cracking. While expressed breast milk remains safe at room temperature for up to four hours. If you have to transport it for longer periods of up to eight hours, you’ll need to keep the milk storage bags in a cooler bag with ice packs.
