After use
Storing breast milk
Only store breast milk collected with a sterile 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 sterilised 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
sterilised bottles tted with a sterilised screw ring and sealing disc. Clearly label the bottle with
the date and time of expression and use older breast milk rst.
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:
1 Unscrew the bottle and remove it from the pump body.
2 Assemble a sterilised teat and screw ring onto the bottle according to the separate
instructions provided with the bottle. Seal the teat with the dome cap.
3
Alternatively, insert a sterilised sealing disc into a sterilised screw ring and screw this onto the bottle.
Do’s
- Always refrigerate or freeze expressed milk immediately.
- Only store milk collected with a sterilised breast pump in sterilised bottles.
Don’ts
- Never refreeze thawed breast milk.
- Never add fresh breast milk to frozen breast milk.
Feeding your baby expressed breast milk
You can feed your baby with breast milk from Philips AVENT bottles and storage cups:
1 If you use frozen breast milk, let it defrost completely before you heat it.
Note: In case of an emergency, you can defrost the milk in a bowl of hot water.
2 Heat the bottle or storage cup with defrosted or refrigerated breast milk in a bowl of hot water
or in a bottle warmer.
3 Remove the screw ring and sealing disc from the bottle or remove the lid from the storage cup.
4 If you are using a storage cup, screw the adapter ring onto the cup.
5 Screw a sterilised screw ring with sterilised teat onto the bottle or onto the storage cup with
adapter ring.
Do’s
- Always check the temperature of the milk before you feed it to your baby.
- Always discard any breast milk that is left over at the end of a feed.
Don’ts
- Never heat breast milk in a microwave, as this can cause uneven heating, which can lead to hot
spots in the milk. It may also destroy nutrients in the milk.
Cleaning and sterilising
The motor unit, the silicone tube and cap and the adapter do not require cleaning and sterilising,
as they do not come into contact with breast milk.
Clean and sterilise all other parts of the breast pump before rst use. Also clean these parts after
each subsequent use and sterilise them before each subsequent use.
