Do these connect directly to the pump instead of the bottles, so you don't have to pump into bottles then pour into bags?

Yes! They come with connector pieces that allow you to hook the bags straight to the breastshield piece. No extra parts need to be purchased to use these bags.
1690174
Yes, each box comes with two plastic pieces with hooks that attach to the pump and allow you to hang the bag from.
1690175
These come with adapters, which screw on to your flange set ups like a bottle would. These adapters have 2 little hooks that you hook into the holes on the bags. No bottles needed!! Just make sure you double check the seal is closed once you're done. I've spilled a couple ounces thinking it was sealed when it wasn't completely. Really wish they had the double seal.

There is a funnel sort of attachment (bottom left of image) that connects to the pump and the bag hands off of the funnel from the hooks. I never used it though because I was afraid of spilling.
1690177
Yes! There are 2 plastic adapters that come in the box. The bag then attaches to the adapters and the adapters attach to the pump!
1690178
Yes- that is the idea. You attach these to the flanges and pump directly into these. However, I had problems with these leaking. I was carrying them in a cooler and they leaked.(Lost about 10 oz!) Perhaps if you put them directly in the freezer and did not move them- they would be fine. But other reviews had warned about this, and I should have listened.

Did you meant to ask, "do you have to attach it to the POUCH or can you pump into a bottle and pour milk into pouch?" if so, the answer is no - once you buy this adapter you can still pump into bottles. However you would just use the pump WITHOUT these adaptors. Or I think you can probably find bottles that these adaptors screw directly on to but this would be pointless - it's just an extra item to clean. So you can either buy this adaptor in order to pump into bags or just connect bottles directly to the pump. Please let me know if this answers your question.

I'm not sure about those, but this does come with two Medela bottles. AND if you buy the Medela milk storage bags, those are also made to connect directly to the pump itself.

I don't think they can be used to attach to other pumps, but you can certainly pump milk with your usual pump and then pour it into these containers for storage!

No brand of storage bag can be adapted to this pump in order to pump directly into. They only allow their brand of bottles to be used with their pump which is the gumdrop and breastflow bottles.

I bought an extra pack of the bottles too. Yes, I pump, store and feed from these bottles.

Yes, you can use these. They are of a similar mould of the containers that come with the pump originally.

they are sort of like a fancy, sterile, double zip ziplock bag. I just take the collector bottles off the pump and pour them right into the bags. The bags do not attach to your machine at all. I hope that helps

You don not have to attach it. you can use it like a traditional bag, but the design is to cut out that step. with the adapter you can pump directly into the bag, because the bag becomes the bottle.

I used the kit with my Madela pump. I found it easier to pump into and store in the small Madela bottles.

you cannot attach them to the pump flanges to use while pumping. They do work with the Medela Calma nipple.
604763
yes they do!! loved it because i was able to transsition my daughter at 5 months with no problem. Still used my old bottles.

You can do either. You can easily pour from a bottle into the bags, or you can pump directly into the bag. They have adaptors for most breast pumps. I will say my medela pump in style had trouble pumping directly into the bag so I poured from a bottle.

I don't see why not, I remember pouring breast milk into them from the pump cup, so you should still be able to do that. As far as hooking up to the pump to pump directly into the bags, possibly, depending on what type of pump you have. It might be better to contact Medela to know for sure if your pump compatible.

Yes, that's why I bought them. Works great, I've been using my medela pump with my avent bottles for almost 6 months now.

No, but it is very self explainitory. Just screw in to where the bottles would typically go and hang you bags.

I don't believe so. There is an adapter kit you can purchase to make it so you can pump directly into these bottles. Philips AVENT BPA Free Standard Breast Pump Conversion Kit
