Then, I pour into the milk bags. I pour multiple sessions into one bag, and can get 13 ounces in each bag. I freeze the bags and take them to daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-829215 Tue, 04 Jun 2013 10:02:37 +0000 ladyfingers 829215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump into the Medela bottles that came with my pump. It's worth the extra work to not have to pay for a disposable item. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828710 Tue, 04 Jun 2013 07:46:02 +0000 dagret 828710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump into bottles, then use those same bottles to send to daycare the next day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828605 Tue, 04 Jun 2013 07:07:52 +0000 pl0508 828605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bottles ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828591 Tue, 04 Jun 2013 06:57:49 +0000 regberadaisy 828591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: hahah stupid iPhone autocorrect! I meant have you checked to see if your flange will screw into your Tommee Tippee bottles? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828404 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 23:23:19 +0000 BlueWolverine 828404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump into the bottles. I found the ounce labeling on the bags to be inaccurate and am way too attached to my BM to not know exactly how much I pumped. I wash all of the bottles and don't mind the few extra minutes it takes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828400 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 23:19:16 +0000 MaisyMay 828400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump into the medela bottles. When at work, I transfer the milk into a 3rd bottle for storage and reattach the 2 bottles. When home, I just put a cap on the bottle for her. Once she's had 8 ounces of milk, the newly pumped milk goes into a new bottle and is later poured into a bag. DH does the bottle washing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828209 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 21:12:13 +0000 MsLipGloss 828209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I have mostly pumped into the Medela bottles (I have 8 total I think . . . or maybe 10, I forget. : / I have also pumped into Medela bags, but I did mostly bottles because I would use the bottles for the next day's feeding, and because I have so little left over. Even though I liked the Medela bags, I recently switched to the Honeysuckle bags (thanks to suggestions from you HB lovelies!) and they are great! They store flatter, are cheaper, and I haven't had any problems with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828191 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 21:06:49 +0000 mrskc 828191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I never read your post before. The twist tie idea is great! I may have to try that. I always come home and have tons of bottles to wash and then spend time transferring my milk to freezer bags. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828112 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 20:31:44 +0000 HabesBabe 828112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: OK, so I read your post when it was published, but I didn't notice the cute boob/nipple design on the tab of the bags until now! LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828041 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 20:04:01 +0000 littlebug 828041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ninja: Exactly what I do! I use the adapters that @lawbee11 mentioned. At least, that's what I do at work. In the evenings, I use the Lansinoh bottles that came with my pump, then usually end up freezing that. The TT adapters don't fit my Lansinoh pump. Booo.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828040 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 20:04:01 +0000 Smurfette 828040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: boo!

We registered for Avent and she didn't like them. I would buy one single bottle first and open that before you open a whole box. We learned that lesson. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828023 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:53:34 +0000 Periwinkle 828023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Amazing tip on the twisty ties!

Once in a while, I will pump into a Lansinoh bag but I don't like that I have to hold the bang and the flange with this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828013 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:49:07 +0000 lawbee11 828013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I really wanted to register for TT bottles but the not being able to pump into them thing turned me off until I stumbled upon those! Just make sure to get 2 if you have a double electric pump. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-pump-into#post-828010 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 19:46:50 +0000 Smurfette 828010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Tommie borked?</p> <p>@lawbee11: This would be perfect.
