Breast milk storage question

I have about 200 oz of breast milk in our chest freezer. I am freezing bags flat and have them in 2 boxes in the freezer. It's getting cumbersome, and I wonder if anyone is doing something that works better?

  • Someone on here suggested using a cheap med. sized gift bag. You cut a slit in the side at the bottom. The you put a BM bag in the bottom and freeze flat. Then lay the next BM bag on top etc. The oldest milk will be on the bottom so when you're ready to use it you just pull the bottom bag out of the gift bag!

  • i used a cheap plastic ice box (like this)- they have these at walmart or target. it was exactly the right width for BM storage bags.
  • Thank you!!
