Quick question as I can not remember but how long can you store bm in the fridge?

5 days, if u smell it u will know if u need to use it sooner lol. off breast milk smells AWFUL! xxx

Thanks hoping to go to the cinema when my mum visits so want to make sure I express enough as his a hungry little guy.

Was my first attempt tonight and although he had just finished a 30 minute feed and was satisfied 10 mintues into expressing and he was demanding more.

Do hope he stretches feeds out soon as I feel I am constantly doing it

my LO is only 6 weeks, but i am starting to think about expressing, although i probably wont use a bottle till after xmas and it would only be for when we go out.
My questions are though, when to start expressing and if to store it up in the freezer, my HV mentioned that i should perhaps start sooner to ensure i have enough for a few feeds, and keep them in the freezer.
What ar eyou guys using to store them in, ive seen the expressing bags in the shops, boots have 40 for ??????7, do the superrmarkets sell them cheaper?
Also the best time to express or is that a personal thing?
i shll be asking HV next time i see her but wondering your thoughts.

I think Tesco sells storage bags cheaper, not sure how much though as I was given a box! Usually the best time to express is mornings, I was told about 30 mins after a feed but I've yet to start as we're still trying to build up my supply after weeks of problems.
