Cleaning pump between sessions?

plan-a-holic · April 2010

Going back to work soon. If I pump two or three times at work, how will I clean the breast sheild parts between sessions at work so I can use them again? Is it necessary? I usually use parts once then wash and sterilize at home. I'm not sure I'll have time to be that thorough at work after each session. I have wipes to clean parts after using, but is that safe to use between sessions too? Should I just buy more parts?

I put my bag in the fridge with the bottles and flanges inside so everything stays cold. Then I wash the flanges in the evening. As long as the flanges stay cool inbetween pumping you don't have to worry about it.

I have a small bottle of dish soap in my pump bag and just wash them in hot soapy water after each pump and put them in a plastic bag inside my bag. If I don't have time to wash, I just put them in the plastic bag and then into my cooler bag in the fridge.
