VI. STORING BREAST MILK
Maternal breast milk provides your baby with the right amount of vitamins, mineral salts, trace elements,
sugar, fat and proteins in order to grow and develop in a healthy way. Store and thaw your breast milk
appropriately in order to preserve your breast milk's nutri�onal quali�es and to minimise bacterial
contamina�on.
Breast milk can be preserved in the collec�on cup or bo�le provided as part of your breast pump kit, or in
freezer-safe containers and bags. Mark the date and hour at which you collected your breast milk on the
container before storing it.
