Pumping at work

Hello mummies, my maternity leave is ending soon and I’m planning to express milk during work, just wondering if anyone can give advice on how to sterilize your breastpump multiple times at work? Coz I’ll be working for straight 12 hours in a day i cant imagine how i can store breastmilk without sterilizing my breastpump😓 thanks

hi, what pump brand are u using? I'm using Medela and my understanding is need only sterilise once, end of the day, not after every use.

If your workplace has a microwave, you may be able to use a microwaveable steriliser like the Philips Avent one.

I pump 2x at work rinse with HOT water after pump and keep the whole thermal bag into office fridge
