Hi where did you get the freezer bag?
The brand is PackIt and I got mine at Office Max. They are available on Amazon and even though I have a lunch bag, they actually make breastmilk bags specially designed to travel with breastmilk!
This is a lot of great advice!
Thank you~ I was so nervous to travel while pumping and after doing it I'm glad I did!
This was so helpful, thank you!!
You're welcome! Good luck pumping and traveling!
Hi there, about how many oz of milk did you travel back home with? I’m traveling at the end of July and trying to see what size cooler bag I will need. -Paula
I think I came back with at most 50 oz. And the bags were upright and fit nicely and it held more than I thought. But I would estimate how many bags you pump a day, and try to even put that x home many days you'll be gone and make sure it fits before you go. I put some frozen bags in there before I left to see how many would fit. Good luck! The freezable bags are awesome.
Ok I know this is an older video. I am also very stressed about going through tsa
It looks like the TSA guidelines are pretty much the same as when I flew with breastmilk earlier last year. I think it's been almost exactly a year since the video and I don't think much has changed. I would freeze it like they suggested if at all possible but if that's not possible I would just make sure the milk bags were divided so all of them were less than 6 oz and didn't need to be opened up. Good luck flying, the people that took care of me were very very kind and understanding. If you have any questions I can answer, I'd love to help! :)
Does the Elvie pump has the same yield as other pumps?
I do think it had the same yield as my Medela pump when it was fully charged. My spectra had a stronger suction because it had more pressure options but it was very comparable to the output as long as I was using it correctly.
If the breast milk is frozen and the bag is flat how will they know it’s only six ounces?
you know I realized I answered my own question - because we label the bags :D. I went to staples and found the same brand you mentioned this was such a helpful video. I wish the Elvie pumps were more affordable.
@@keshnadonia Yes! The milk bags I used have little marks on them to say how full they are. I'm so glad you found them, they are the best ones I used. I will see if I can link them on Amazon.
