Could you use this to store breastmilk in bags while traveling? I need something to store expressed milk in while traveling for 2 days.

If you had ice packs in with the bags of milk, yes you could do two days. However without ice packs I wouldn't store milk in it for more than a few hours especially in hot temperatures.

I have used it to bring breastmilk from work to home and even forgotten it over night and the breastmilk was still not completely thawed by the time I remembered. This thing is Great for that!

I'm not sure if it can be used while breast feeding. I believe it's too big to fit in your lap, and the middle is lower than the edges. It would be difficult to position. I have the standard Boppy as well. I think this serves a completely different function.

Yes. I travel 8-9 hours a day. By the time I get home, the milks are extremely cold. You should be find! Plus the bag pretty much fits in any of my purses�

I don't think so. Unless the attachment is the same as the avent or medela. However I found that I never pumped directly into the bags for two reasons. 1. Each breast didn't pump enough to fill a bag by itself. 2. The measurements aren't exact it can change depending how the bag unfolds so I always measured the milk into 4 oz bags then we my baby got bigger 7oz bags.

It depends... I use it to put my expressed milk in which is usually 2 tommee tippee bottles (very fat bottles) and 2 medela bottles (more normal sized bottles). I could not put more than 2 tommee tippee bottles in this one where as the other lunch style bag I have I can store 4 tommee tippee bottles. The bag is plenty tall, it's the width that is the only thing that would limit you. Hope this helps!

I've been using the Lansinoh bags. But I don't pump into them directly. I still pump into bottles and then transfer to bags. So... in that respect, any milk storage bags should work fine. I don't know of any designed to work directly with the pump, although AVENT does make a storage container that I used in the past and could pump into directly.

I think so. I've kept small bottles of milk and small yogurt containers in it, though never for longer than three or four days.

Depends on what size storage cups you are referring to, though highly likely since it is amply wide enough to fit regular bottles. Our Medela breast milk storage cups would easily fit in it. Though I am still wary of heating plastics so I only use glass bottles to heat breast milk in.

Yes, it's still leakproof as far as I can see. But we don't travel with it coz it's too small for a 3yr old :). We use it at home extensively and for water only. There are plenty of grooves in the cover for milk to curdle so I won't use it for milk.But I would think it will travel well, cos my toddler sometimes hold it upside down and shakes it and nothing comes out. I would put it into a separate clean bag on it's own tho, as the child's mouth will be drinking directly from the lid.

Disposable. I think most breastmilk storage bags are disposable. I guess you could store milk in plastic or glass bottles in the freezer but it would take up a awful lot of space if you have a lot of storage built up. The disposable storage bags allow you to store the milk flat.

I typically put 3 cold bottles of breast milk in along with 3 ice packs (the one that the bag comes with along w/two other block ice packs), and since my daycare doesn't have room in the fridge, the milk stays in the cooler all day. By the end of my 8 hour shift, the milk is still chilled. It may not be absolutely cold, but it is definitely still above room temperature.

I don't think this would fit three days worth of milk. You're going to want to use the ice pack since that's what really is keeping the milk cold, and it takes up a bit of space.

Yes, there are sealing disks that come with them as well as the lids you can see in the picture. Storing breast milk in them is a wonderful idea so now you don't have to use the plastic bags and it's less transferring. I'll be sure to remember that. Thank you!

I only used breast milk which was cold. Warm milk spoils fast so I traveled with cold milk.

It does for in The fridge. But if you are storing Breastmilk I would keep it in the freezer. I don't knw. I have used the Lansinoh & Dr. Browns bags and the fit fine. I freeze them laying on top of the lid & the move them inside to stand up.
