How to store expressed breastmilk

Question

This is my first pregnancy and would like to gain more knowledge on how to properly store breastmilk and their lifespan.From what i read, theres 2 ways to store breastmilk(if you dont intend to give your baby straightaway):1. Chiller, normal fridge2. Freezer (im using the normal 2 door fridge with freezer)How to determine when to store our expressed breastmilk in chiller and freezer.For chiller and freezer, how long can the milk last?And if we wish to store the breastmilk in chiller/normal fridge, do you still put in storage bags or just put in bottle.Fyi im using a 2 door samsung fridge. Right is normal fridge, left is freezer, as below#advicepls #firstbaby

In normal fridge, I usually store in those expressed bottles so it’s easier to pour out. If not in milk bottles provided u have enough bottles to circulate. Those are to be consume within 48hrs. If u got too much supply or feels won’t use within 48hrs can just put in freezer using bag. Just remember to label the time n date of milk.
