NEVER use a microwave oven or boiling
water to thaw or warm up breast milk.
If breast milk is not warmed carefully, it
loses some of its natural vitamins, miner
als and other valuable nutritional content.
To retain the nutritional content of the
breast milk, it is preferable to thaw the
breast milk in a refrigerator overnight.
Alternatively, you can hold the breast milk con
tainer under lukewarm water (max. 37 °C).

The temperature in a refrigerator door is
higher than that recommended for stor

breast milk in a middle or lower shelf of your
refrigerator.
