Lansinoh Breastmilk Storage Bags - 50 count

When I was bfing my first child I used the plastic BPA free bottles and froze what I could. It took up a lot of space and was somewhat of a guessing game as to how much could fit into each bottle. (I tried to get as much as I could into each one.) When I was looking for a better way to store breast milk the second time around I wavered between several types and finally decided to give this product a try because it would require the least amount of space in my freezer, is BPA free, and looked easy to use. I have been using them now for two months with no problems. I've ordered a second box and have approximately 75 bags in the freezer right now. I've used over 75 bags with zero leakage. I do make certain that the surface I am using is clean of all liquids and crumbs. I could see crumbs possibly causing a small hole which would create a leak but, you would have to be really careless to have this happen. I've also thawed several bags in the fridge and followed the instructions that come with the bags, quite logical really. The company claims that they have an easy pour on the bags but, I tend to be klutzy so instead of using the pour spout I gently turn the bag upside down and cut off one of the corners and then use that to pour the contents into a bottle. I figured that way I can make just a small hole that allows me to have better control when I'm pouring the milk thus creating less potential for spills. I have been so pleased with my choice in using these bags. I am able to lay them flat to freeze, store them upright in my freezer once frozen, thaw and use just as much milk as needed for each bottle. I would strongly encourage anyone looking for an easy, clean, and effective storage system for breast milk to seriously consider giving these a try.

I have used many different bags...Gerber, Lansinoh, Medela,etc. I didn't really have a preference at first. But now I really love the Lansinoh bags for the quality and the price.

The gerber ones were okay for the price, but for not a ton more, I really feel more secure using the Lansinoh bags with their double seal and they feel thicker and better to me for storing my daughter's milk.

I work full time so I use about 8 or more bags a day while at work and again I just have loved these.

Now I was using the ones that were made for my pump and it was nice because they had the sticky tabs so you just pumped in the bag. But they cost a little more as well it was harder if you were trying to divide up your bags into certain portions.

I now just pump straight into the little bottles that came with my pump and then pour those in incriments into these bags. It works great.

I really would recommend these bags for moms who are pumping a lot while working full time.

Handy bags. Make for convenient, space saving storage. Double ziploc-type seal seems to hold up well. The only negative things that I have experienced with these are spilling while filling (bag slipped from my hand with the act of pouring the milk inside it) and a tear hole in the freezer (either stuck to or was abraded by metal edge in freezer door area). Being careful, my two issues have never happened again.
