1. Sterilise the container before first use in boiling water or a microwave steriliser.

3. Remove the pump and tightly screw on the leak-proof lid.
4. Store the container in the fridge or freezer until you need the milk.
5. Ready to feed? Screw a baby teat onto the container and you’re set.

If you use the storage container together with the Gen 2 Breast Pump + lid, you have a complete system for pumping and storing in one. Perfect when you’re on the go or want a backup set.

Silicone is a sustainable way to store breast milk because the material is odour- and flavour-free and doesn’t release substances into the milk. This makes it different from hard plastic, which can discolour or absorb smells over time. The airtight lid keeps air away from the milk, preserving nutrients better.

If you’re wondering whether silicone is safe for breast milk storage: the container is made from food-grade and medical silicone, free of BPA, PVC and phthalates. These are exactly the substances parents are rightly cautious about. Reusable silicone breast milk storage containers like these last much longer than disposables and are more cost-effective over time. You can find the full Haakaa range at Haakaa.

Yes, the container is freezer-safe. Don’t fill it completely, as liquids expand when frozen.

Keep in mind that silicone is thicker than a disposable bag. Freezing and thawing take a little longer. Place the container in lukewarm water to gently warm the milk.

That depends on what you’re looking for. Disposable bags freeze faster and take up less space in the freezer. They’re also cheaper per piece.

The Haakaa storage containers are sturdier, reusable, and fit directly on the Gen. 3 breast pump. This means you never have to pour the milk, reducing waste. If you want to build a large freezer stock, a combination of both might be best.

Sterilise the silicone parts in boiling water or a steam steriliser. Avoid bleach and UV sterilisers, as they damage the material.

Pay close attention to the edges around the lid. These are narrow and can hold milk fat. A bottle brush is helpful here. If you want to know the best way to store breast milk in the Haakaa Gen. 3 storage container, thorough cleaning after each use is key.

If you already use the Haakaa Gen. 3 breast pump, these storage containers are the logical addition. You pump, store, and feed in the same system without extra containers or pouring. That saves time and avoids spilled milk.

If you value plastic-free and reusable solutions, this is a great choice even outside the Haakaa system. The container also works well later as a snack box for your toddler, so you get long-term use.

If you don’t have a Haakaa pump and mainly want to build a large freezer stock quickly, disposable bags or Philips Avent storage cups might be more practical. Bags lay flatter and thaw faster. But for daily use and sustainable storage, Haakaa Breast Milk Storage containers win on nearly every point.
