8)
Milk should begin to flow after the first few strokes. Don't worry if your
milk does not flow immediately. Relax and continue pumping.
Do not continue pumping for more than 5 minutes at a time if NO
result is achieved. Try expressing at another time during the day.
Please remember that, should the process become very painful or
uncomfortable, you should stop using the pump and consult your
doctor or breastfeeding adviser.
9)
Some women may prefer to use the pump without the let-down massage
cushion. Extensive trials show that, in most cases, the massaging effect
of the petals flexing in and out around the areola stimulates the let-
down reflex and allows you to express more milk more quickly.
10)
On average you will need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60/120 ml or
2/4 ozs. However, this is just a guide and varies from woman to woman.
10. How to store your expressed breast milk
•
Breast milk can be stored in the
fridge or freezer in either Breast
Milk Storage Containers
(4 oz/125 ml bottles fitted with
sealing discs) or in disposable
bags, sealed with clips.
•
Only milk collected with a sterile pump should be stored and fed
to your baby.
•
Expressed milk should be refrigerated immediately.
•
Double bag if using disposable liners.
•
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 milk to add to during the day, ensure it is put back
in the fridge each time. Milk can only be kept like this for a maximum
of 24 hours (from first expression) after which it must be used
immediately or frozen for future use.
•
NEVER refreeze breast milk.
•
DO NOT add fresh breast milk to already frozen milk.
Storing your milk in AVENT Reusable Bottles
If your expressed breast milk will be fed to your baby within 48 hours,
assemble the nipple, screw ring and dome cap and attach onto the
bottle for storage in the fridge.
To store in the freezer (for up to 3 months), use an AVENT Sealing Disc in
place of the nipple and dome cap. The storage container should be clearly
labeled with the date and time of expression and older milk used up first.
Storing your milk in AVENT Disposable Bottle Bags
If using AVENT Disposable Bags for storage, secure bag with clip and
place in disposable holder base. Allow at least 25mm/1" of space
between the milk and the clip as the milk will expand as it freezes.
No more than 6 fl.oz. (170 ml) of milk should be stored in a disposable
bag. Make sure it is well protected in the freezer to prevent crushing.
•
Double bag to prevent tearing.
11. Feeding your baby expressed breast milk
If breast milk has been stored in an AVENT Breast Milk Storage
Container, replace the sealing disc with a sterilized AVENT nipple.
If breast milk has been stored in a Disposable Bottle Bag, fit the bag into
the AVENT Disposable Bottle Holder. Assemble blue tinted nipple, screw
ring and dome cap and screw onto the top of the holder, securing the bag.
Frozen breast milk should be defrosted overnight in the refrigerator.
Once thawed use within 24 hours.
Breast milk can be heated in the same way as any other bottle feed. Stand
the bottle of milk in a bowl of hot water or alternatively, for a safe and
fast way to warm feeds use the AVENT Express Bottle Warmer. Always
make sure you test the temperature of the milk before giving to baby.
Never heat breast milk or formula in a microwave as this may destroy
valuable nutrients/ and antibodies. In addition, the uneven heating
may cause hot spots in the liquid which could cause burns to the throat.
