Quick Answer
The Mila's Keeper Expecting Mama Starter Set gives you an insulated cooler and glass bottles so you can pump on the go and keep milk safe for up to 20 hours. Here's what's inside and how to use it step by step.
Why Choose a Starter Set for On-the-Go Pumping
If you plan to breastfeed and stay active, a starter set saves you from buying pieces separately. The insulated cooler and glass bottles are designed to work together, so you can pump at work, run errands, or take a short getaway without worrying about milk temperature.
Glass bottles are plastic-free, which matters if you prefer to avoid plastic for storing breast milk. The 5-ounce size is practical for smaller pumping sessions or for storing milk in portions that match a typical feeding.
How to Use Your Mila's Keeper Starter Set
- Prepare the bottles before pumping: Wash the glass bottles and cooler according to the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure bottles are completely dry before use to prevent dilution of milk. Check for any cracks or chips in the glass before each use.
- Pump directly into the glass bottle: Attach the bottle to your pump flange and collect milk as usual. The 5-ounce size is ideal for a single pumping session, so don't overfill beyond the marked line. If you pump more than 5 ounces, have a second bottle ready to avoid overflow.
- Seal and place in the cooler immediately: Screw the lid on tightly and put the bottle inside the insulated cooler right after pumping. This keeps milk at a safe temperature for up to 20 hours, so you don't need a fridge for short trips. Keep the cooler closed as much as possible to maintain temperature.
- Use or store the milk within 20 hours: For maximum safety, use the milk within the 20-hour window or transfer to a refrigerator if you'll be away longer. Label the bottle with the date and time if you're storing it. Never leave the cooler in a hot car, as that reduces its effectiveness.
