freezing breast milk

What are you girls using to freeze breast milk? Glass bottles? Plastic bottles or those plastic breast milk bags?
I'm trying to get a supply going and I'm to the point that I can pump a little more than what DD demands so I'm trying to get an idea of what to use to freeze my supply.

THanks!

I use the Medela bags too. I also bought a plastic organizer for my freezer... not sure who makes it. It keeps the bags upright and squished together to save space.

Do you pump the milk into a bottle then transfer into the bag or directly into the bag?

The organizer in the freezer sounds like something that I would love to get!

yes...I would pump in bottles and then after about a week in the fridge if not used it is transferred to a bag to go into the freezer!
