Description of Medela CSF Breastmilk Storage Bags - 20 Pack
Breast milk stored in presterilized medical-grade nylon bags can be stored in the freezer of a two-door refrigerator for up to six months and in a deep freeze for up to one year. The presterilized nylon breast milk bags in this package of 20 have been especially designed to collect, store, and freeze expressed milk. Moms can pump milk directly into the sterile, leak-free bag, secure it with a twist tie, then pop it in the freezer--it's that simple! An easy-pour spout and premarked volume measurements in ounces and milliliters makes this a safe and convenient means of storing breast milk. Although many moms complain about the clumsy twist tie design of these bags, they are very effective in keeping milk fresh and take up less space in the freezer and cooling compartment of pump bags than do bottles. --Deb OroszlanBaby Products Reviews of Medela CSF Breastmilk Storage Bags - 20 Pack
Customer Review: Worst Breastmilk Bags I've Tried
Summary: 1 Stars
I have been wanting to make this post for a long time. I wish I could choose "zero" stars. Of the breastmilk bags I have tried over the years (this is my third baby) these have to be the worst ever.
1. They do not fit easily on the "suction cups". I tried to get them on there right for what seemed like hours the first night I had them and finally gave up and just pumped into a bottle and poured into the bags for storage. The twist-ties should thread through little premade holes in the bag to hold onto the pump. I wasted two bags as the twist time tore the hole when I tried to tighten it around the hand piece. When I did finally manage to get it on there "right" as soon as the bag had any weight in it, it shifted and fell off. Not worth the effort it takes to get it on there "perfectly".
2. They leak. When using for storage you are supposed to roll the top down (after squeezing the air out) and secure with the enclosed twist tie. This is easy... right?.... yea, except the twist tie unravels and your roll is loosened the second you let go of it. Therefore if it gets knocked over before it freezes or as you are thawing it your precious milk gets spilled.
I was drawn to these because I was tired of washing bottles for pumping and loved the idea of not having to use them anymore. Not only did I have to continue using bottles but several ounces of my milk ended up on the inside of our freezer.
I have now switched to another brand which has a double zip-lock top. They are so much more convenient for storage, and since there's 2 zip locks I know my milk won't spill if one fails. The new bags are also thicker and just feel more durable.
