If you want to express your milk but don't want to use it immediately, you can freeze it for later. The best storage containers are made of hard plastic or glass, but you can also use plastic freezer bags - just be sure to double bag to protect against freezer burn and leaks.
The length of time you may safely store your breast milk depends on how you freeze it. You can safely freeze your breast milk for up to two weeks in a freezer compartment within a refrigerator, three or four months in a self-contained freezer unit in a refrigerator, and six months in a separate deep freeze unit with a constant temperature.
