How to store breast milk in the fridge or freezer

Breast milk is very resilient and stores well in the fridge or freezer because of its antibacterial properties. It can either be frozen or refrigerated depending on when you're planning to use it. These storage methods can extend its shelf life, but just like any other foodstuff, breast milk does expire over time. Our Closer to Nature bottle nipples feature an anti-colic valve to prevent the symptoms of colic by ensuring your little one ingests more milk and less air. If your baby is going to have the milk at a childminder or nursery, clearly add their name and ask your care provider if they have any other requirements for how it should be labelled and stored.
