HOW TO USE

2. Place pod inside of bottle.
3. Screw bottle onto bottle neck adaptor and continue to follow assembly of breast pump instructions.
4. When the breast pump is fully assembled and in usage, the pod will hold up to 2oz.
5. Once you have expressed 2oz stop pumping, place lid on storage pod and remove from bottle.

STORAGE OF BREAST MILK
1. Refrigerate expressed milk immediately. If you express more than once a day, you can add the amounts so long as you put it back in the
refrigerator each time.
2. Store milk in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, or in the freezer for 3 months,
3. You will notice that stored milk separates out into layers. Shake to remix thoroughly before feeding.
4. When freezing milk, allow space at the top of the bottle for expansion. It is easiest to freeze milk in individual feed quantities of 2-4ozs.
5. Thaw frozen milk in the refrigerator or by standing the bottle in lukewarm water until it has reached body temperature.
6. If you want to take expressed milk with you when you are out, make sure it stays cold or frozen until needed.
