Storing Breastmilk - Deep Freezer Question

Manders71208

I am a FTM, trying to learn the rules of the road with regards to breastmilk storage....so I apologize in advance for the stupid question. Currently I am storing my breastmilk in our kitchen fridge/freezer. We have another refrigerator in our garage (with separate freezer) that I've considered making an exclusive breastmilk freezer. If I do that, can I follow the deep freeze guidelines -- or is there something special about an actual deep freezer that allows milk to stay there longer?

I would think so. I think as long as it isn't opened and used a lot is the main thing with a "deep freezer" being able to keep longer.
