so we are going to Mexico and I pump my extra everyday and I do not want to lose that supply while we are gone so I plan to pump and I know you can put your part in the fridge between pump can you do that for a day or two for me to limit my washing

    Personally, given the potential for questionable water, etc. I would buy some of the Medela wipes to clean/sanitize the pump parts (available at Target, etc.)

    I wash every 2-3 days (shhh, don't tell the pumping police) and have never had any problems. Between pumps, I keep it all in a zip lock bag in the fridge.

    I just use the medela wipes at work and will wash my parts only occasionally.  Terrible but true and we haven't had an issue.  

    If you do use the wipes, I recommend cutting them in half you'll get more use out of them.
