Breastfeeding Support and Resources
Exclusive breastfeeding can be enhanced by building a freezer stash. Start by using a hospital-grade pump every 2-3 hours. Store milk in single-use portions (2-4 oz) in freezer-safe bags or containers. Label each bag with the date and time. Thaw frozen milk in the refrigerator or under warm running water for 15-20 minutes. Do not microwave or boil. Offer thawed milk within 24 hours of defrosting.
