Medela Breast Milk Freezer Pack, 2.7 oz (80ml) Bottles (Pack of 24)

I actually got these just to store breastmilk so I wouldnt have to store it in a bottle. I got some similar storage containers as a sample and was pleased(Snappies brand), so I decided to search and order more. While that brand did not come up, the Medela brand did. They looked about the same, so I got them. I did not know they also fit directly on the Medela pumps! This was great; I no longer had to dirty a bottle and then pour into the storage container. I simply pumped into the containers and put the lid on! Another awesome feature is the Medela nipples fit directly on the containers if needed.

I got these thinking I was going to use them to freeze, but soon discovered that they were horrible to thaw in the fridge. It is so much easier to freeze in bags as they can be thawed in a matter of minutes by running under warm water. The positive on these was that I used them to pump into almost exclusively. Pumping into bags is so inaccurate when you are trying to see exactly how much you are pumping. Maybe I am just OCD about it, but I wanted to know exactly how much I was getting from each side and per pumping and these were perfect for that. I didnt use for storage or freezing, but I still found these helpful.

Especially at the reduced price, these are great containers. When I was looking at babyfood containers for the freezer I was surprised at the prices -- so I used these as I had them on hand from when my supply was just getting started. When I first started out I had to pump every 2 hours for the first 4 months. The 5oz bottles made me feel like a failure when I was only getting 1/2 to 1 ounce. So I bought these and was able to measure and store the smaller amounts much easier. They were also great for supplementing with formula. I would put a scoop of formula in a bunch, grab a few for the diaper bag and go. When out I could just add 2oz of water and shake it up. Now that my supply is up I use the bags (different brand actually) for freezer storage, but these still get used for odd amounts -- I save everything in 4oz quantities so any extra goes in these bottles if I need to. But what I use them for most often now is store homemade baby food. I make a batch of steamed veggies or fruit, puree in a food mill, pour it in a ziploc, snip a corner off the bag, then squeeze/pipe the food into the containers. I bought some removable dot labels and theyre easy to store -- I have a plastic shoebox in my freezer that acts as a slide-out drawer and these fit perfectly.

Perfection as always from Medela. Better price than offered in local baby stores. I already had 6 of this but needed more! This 2.7 cylinder shaped storage container is great for breast milk storage (in deep freezer) as well as holding enough powdered formula and/or powdered cereal for an 8oz bottle! Win win! Great price. Fast shipping!

I love these little bottles I wasnt lucky enough to beast feed with my youngest daughter it just didnt work out but I had a ton of these and thought I could multi use these so I started to put her formula and cearel in them for individual bottles saves lots of time to just grab a bottle and one of these prefilled bottles and go she 5 months old and Im still using them!

There are two things I love about these: 1. One pack of has helped me save money on freezer bags. I pump directly into them, cap them, and put them in the freezer. After frozen, I thaw just enough to slide them out of the container into a freezer bag. I can even pop the frozen cylinder into a bottle and let it thaw in the car rather than having to melt it before I get it into the bottle and go. 2. It is so easy to accurately measure the contents with these. Because the storage bags are flexible, I always found once I got milk in a bottle that it was a different amount than what the storage bag showed. Theres no confusion with these. Also, once I slide the frozen milk out of the container and into a baggie, its easy to eyeball later and know how much is there.

These containers are only 2.5 ounces large but that size is great for a quick defrost and works well to supplement a milk bag stash. These are important for if baby is still a bit hungry after having a larger bottle. I love the convenience of these and how easy it is to attach to pump and use as a bottle, plus stacks well in a trey in the freezer. I wish they had a cheap 5oz version.

My nearly 4 months old baby is tiny and does not empty completely my breasts at feedings. I do not produce large quantities of milk but I express it after several feedings daily and I get between 20 and 40 additional ml each time. I then give her this additional quantity by bottle. These little bottles proved perfect for me. They can be attached directly to the medela double pump I rented and you can use them to feed directly the baby which is perfect when you do not produce huge quantities or when you just need to give a small supplement. I also think they will be very useful when she starts the creche as I could give the teachers e.g one bag with a larger quantity (cumulated over one day) and a small bottle in order to avoid wasting milk as i will have to use my frozen milk once I start working again this autumn. They do not leak and are easily washed. They also occupy a tiny place in the fridge ir freezer. The product arrived on time and in perfect conditions.

This is a perfect size for me. I dont have an amazing supply but can fill about one of these per breast. Also nice for easy freezing/storage.

Great
