On average you will need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60-125ml/2-4ozs
from each breast. However, this is just a guide and varies from woman to
woman. If you find that you regularly express more than 125ml/4oz per session,
please use a 260ml/9oz AVENT Breast Milk Container.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge or freezer in either sterile breast milk
containers (125ml/4oz, 260ml/9oz or 330ml fitted with sealing discs) or in
pre-sterilisedVIACups.Donotoverfillthemilkcontainerandbesuretokeep
it upright, otherwise it may leak. To feed, just replace the sealing disc with
an AVENT Teat.
Alternatively replace the VIA Lid with a sterilised VIA
Adaptor, screw ring, dome cap and AVENT Teat.
Expressed milk should be refrigerated immediately.
Only milk collected with a sterile pump should be stored
to be fed to your baby.
Expressed breast milk can be stored in the refrigerator for
up to 48 hours (not in the door) or in the freezer for up to
3 months.
If you are storing freshly expressed milk in the fridge to add
to during the day, only add milk which has been expressed
into a sterile container. Milk can only be kept like this for a
maximum of 48 hours from first expression, after which it
must be used immediately or frozen for future use.
Frozen breast milk can be defrosted overnight in the
refrigerator, heated gradually in warm water or heated
in a Philips AVENT Bottle and Baby Food Warmer.
