After Use; Storing Breast Milk - Philips AVENT SCF330 Mode D'emploi

7 On average, you need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60-125ml (2-4fl oz) of breast milk.
However, this is just an indication and varies from woman to woman.
8 When you have finished expressing, carefully remove the breast pump from your breast and
unscrew the bottle or breast milk container from the pump body ready for feeding/storage.
Clean the other used parts of the breast pump according to the instructions in the chapter
'Cleaning and sanitizing'.
Note: If you regularly express more than 125ml per session, you can use a 260ml/9fl oz Philips AVENT
bottle or 240ml/8fl oz Philips AVENT storage cup to prevent overfilling and spillage.

after use

Storing breast milk

Only store breast milk collected with a sanitized pump.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge (not in the door) for up to 48 hours. Expressed milk should
be refrigerated immediately. If you store milk in the fridge to add to during the day, only add milk
that has been expressed into a sanitized bottle or breast milk container.
Breast milk can be stored in the freezer for up to three months as long as it is kept in either
sanitized bottles fitted with a sanitized screw ring and sealing disc or in sanitized storage cups with a
sanitized lid. Clearly label the bottle or storage cup with the date and time of expression and use
older breast milk first.
If you intend to feed your baby with the expressed breast milk within 48 hours, you can store the
breast milk in the fridge in an assembled Philips AVENT bottle or storage cup:
1 Unscrew the bottle or storage cup and remove it from the pump body.
2 Assemble a sanitized teat and screw ring onto the bottle or storage cup according to the
separate instructions provided with the bottle or storage cup.
3 Seal the teat with the dome cap.
