Storing your expressed breast milk

Philips AVENT products are interchangeable, so you can express, store and feed with the same container, preserving valuable nutrients that can get lost if breast milk is transferred.

After expressing milk into an AVENT Breast Milk Container, insert a sealing disc into the screw ring and twist onto the container.To feed, just replace the sealing disc with an AVENT Airflex Teat.

Guidelines for storing expressed breast milk

Breast milk can be stored in the fridge or freezer in either sterile AVENT Breast Milk Containers (125ml/4oz or 260ml/9oz fitted with sealing discs) or in pre-sterilised VIA Cups.

Do not overfill the milk container and be sure to keep it upright.

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 on the lowest setting of the Philips AVENT Bottle and Baby Food Warmer. Never heat milk in a microwave as this may destroy valuable nutrients and antibodies and uneven heating could cause hot spots.

NB: NEVER refreeze breast milk. DO NOT add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk. ALWAYS discard any milk that is left over at the end of a feed.

CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE A FROZEN MILK CONTAINER OR VIA CUP IN BOILING WATER AS THIS MAY CAUSE IT TO CRACK/SPLIT.
