Milk Pumpers/Storers - What milk storage bags/system do you use?

I've been using the Medela pump and store bags. I just used up my last bag from my first box. I have to either buy more Medela bags or buy another storage system.

Was curious what the other pumpers/storers used to store their milk.

I always used Lansinoh and I bought them at Target - a lot more affordable there then the baby stores.

I used the Lansinoh also. When I was researching bags, I read on some forum I found through google that they froze flatter than other bags. I didn't try other bags so I'm not sure if this is true- but I have been happy with them. I freeze them flat and then store them in date groupings in larger zip-lock bags.

I used lansinoh reusable freezer bottles (with the purple caps).... but then again, I never kept massive storage, so I was fine with about 12 bottles...

I just use the Medela ones... I can also hook them onto the pump should I not have any available bottles too.

I like that idea of storing them in larger ziplocs by date-- great idea! My stock is taking over my freezer-- and I need to start using some from when Sasha was first born.

I never have milk to freeze anymore but I use the Medela plastic bottles mostly and go throough those daily. I found if I used the bag and put them in the fridge they would leak and a few leaked when I froze them and the milk was useless.

I do use them if I freeze just fill them only about 1/2 and freeze flat as other posters have said-the more bends in the frozen product the more chance of leakag
