I don't think so, do you keep it in the fridge between pumps?

Twinklemegan · 07/01/2008 23:16

I'd say no.

I used to just keep it in the fridge for that length of time

I used to wrap mine in a new plastic food bag and stick it in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Never did ds2 any harm!

Yes, fine to keep the pump in the fridge.
Robin, if you keep expressing at the same time every day, eventually, you will build up more of a supply at that time.
