Dear netters, artikel dibawah ini aku ambil dari breastfeeding.com
BREASTMILK STORAGE GUIDELINES If you're pumping at work (or thinking about it) you'll likely be storing your milk for later use. Human breastmilk has an amazing ability to ward off bacteria and can be stored at room temperature for several hours. However, if you plan to use the milk in the next few days, weeks or months, you'll want to refrigerate or freeze your expressed milk. The following are some guidelines for storing expressed milk for moms of healthy, full-term babies. Moms who are storing milk for a baby who is in the hospital should follow any guidelines required by the hospital. (Embedded image moved to file: pic17035.pcx) Before expressing milk, always wash your hands and make sure the containers you plan to store the milk in have been washed in hot, soapy water and thoroughly rinsed, or have gone through the dishwasher. (Embedded image moved to file: pic09894.pcx) Always date the milk before storing it. (Embedded image moved to file: pic28703.pcx) If you are expressing or pumping milk to be given to your baby in the next 30 minutes, the milk can simply be kept at room temperature - there are no special storage guidelines. (Embedded image moved to file: pic23811.pcx) Milk can be stored in a normal refrigerator with other food items. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control say human milk does not require special handling or storage in a separate container. |---------------------------------------------------------------| | | | (Embedded image moved to file: pic31322.pcx) Breastmilk | | can be stored at room temperature (66-72 | | degrees Fahrenheit) for up to 10 hours | | | | (Embedded image moved to file: pic30333.pcx) Breastmilk | | can be stored in the refrigerator that maintains | | a temperature of between 32 and 29 degrees Fahrenheit | | for up to 8 days. | | | | (Embedded image moved to file: pic17673.pcx) Breastmillk| | can be stored in the freezer section of your | | refrigerator that has a separate door for up to 3 months. | | | | (Embedded image moved to file: pic15141.pcx) Breastmilk | | can be stored in an upright or chest freezer at | | a constant temperature of 0 degrees (Fahrenheit) for 6 | | to 12 months. | |---------------------------------------------------------------| Containers Use plastic or glass containers with tops that fit well or special bags designed for storing breastmilk (many pump manufactures make milk storage containers). Thin bottle liners are not recommended. They tend to rip and tear easily. Freezing Milk stored in the freezer should be placed in the middle of the freezer and not kept on the freezer door. If you plan to add milk to an already frozen container, cool the milk in the refrigerator first. Adding warm or room-temperature milk to a frozen supply could thaw the frozen milk. Milk that has been frozen and thawed can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours, but should not be refrozen. Freeze milk in 2-4 oz. servings. This will allow you to thaw one serving at a time to help avoid wasting the milk. Whichever container you choose, don't fill it to the top ? allow room for expansion when freezing. Warming Thaw frozen breastmilk under warm, running water. Do not boil! Heating the milk will destroy its nutrients. Shake before testing the temperature or serving it to your baby (it is common for the cream to separate from milk in storage). Avoid microwaves. Breasmilk heated in a microwave tends to have "hot spots" that could burn your baby. ---------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this communication is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed and others authorized to receive it.
