8. Storing Breast Milk

Warning
• Do not thaw frozen breast milk in a
microwave or in a pan of boiling water.
• Do not microwave breast milk. Microwaving
can cause severe burns to baby's mouth
from hot spots that develop in the milk
during microwaving. (Microwaving can also
change the composition of breast milk.)
Note
• If the ice pack is frozen solid, it will safely
cool your breast milk for up to 10 hours in
a room temperature environment inside
your pump bag or up to 8 hours in a room
temperature environment, inside the cooler,
stored outside of the pump bag.
