I just wipe it down to keep milk from getting all over the outside of the parts so I don't get sticky fingers from handling later :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-796042 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:54:35 +0000 birdofafeather 796042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i put everything in a plastic container in between uses during the day and rinse when i get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795965 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:38:37 +0000 lilyann 795965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I store them in the fridge in between sessions without rinsing/washing until I get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795935 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:30:22 +0000 lindseykaye 795935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @sloaneandpuffy too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795838 Mon, 20 May 2013 14:06:29 +0000 purrpletulips 795838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>same as @sloaneandpuffy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795743 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:45:13 +0000 LemonLong 795743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the sink in the mother's room </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795731 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:39:58 +0000 hellobeeboston 795731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump in a single bathroom and there is a sink in there obviously so I rinse right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795729 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:39:20 +0000 Bluebonnet 795729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a sink in the mother's room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795722 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:35:10 +0000 BlueWolverine 795722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the fridge - no rinsing. I told one of my good friends that I was so pleased that I thought of this time saving plan and she stopped in her tracks and uttered a few curse words. She just weaned her 2nd and had purchased about 5 sets of pump parts so she could use fresh ones at each pump.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795721 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:34:33 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 795721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just rinsed them off really good in the sink in the bathroom, quickly dried them with a paper towel and then wrapped them with a dry paper towel until I needed them again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795713 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:31:40 +0000 mamimami 795713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wipe down with kleenex and store NOT in the frig. I figure if milk can be out 6-8 at room temp, so can my pump parts (between first and third pump). Never had any problems so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795673 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:19:39 +0000 MamaMoose 795673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I refrigerate and wash at home as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795662 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:16:29 +0000 DillonLion 795662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Keep everything refrigerated and wash at home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795648 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:13:10 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 795648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I refrigerated between sessions and washed at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795644 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:11:38 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 795644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a sink in my classroom that I use to rinse. If I pump somewhere else, I use a sink in one of the single-person bathrooms. I only rinse and store the parts with an ice pack; then I wash at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795639 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:09:44 +0000 mrsjazz 795639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I did rinse, I'd do it in the bathroom. But for the most part I either stuck them in the fridge or used quick wipes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795623 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:04:30 +0000 MarieJ 795623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just stick everything in the fridge while at work to avoid washing/rinsing until I get home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-do-you-wash-pump-parts-at-work#post-795620 Mon, 20 May 2013 13:03:39 +0000 Corduroy 795620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you pump/pumped at work, where do you rinse or wash your parts? </p>
