Feeding with the breast milk

NOTE:
You can use the supplied bottle with the silicone teat when
feeding with the breast milk. Alternatively, you can also
express the breast milk with a NUK or Avent bottle before
feeding (corresponding NUK / Avent adapter is included in
the box).
 Prior to feeding, ensure the bottle has been disinfected before
filling it with the breast milk that has been stored.
 To defrost breast milk, store it overnight in the fridge, so as to
retain the nutrients. Once the breast milk is defrosted, it must be
used within 24 hours. Breast milk should only be defrosted in
warm water in especially urgent cases.
 If the breast milk smells unpleasant, it should be disposed of
immediately.
 Never heat up breast milk in the microwave as it may be heated
unevenly and could burn your child when they drink it.
 If heating up the breast milk, check its temperature before
feeding it to your baby.
