Frozen Colostrum
Any recommendations for cool bags/freezer containers to take to the hospital to stop colostrum from defrosting?

Look on Amazon for an insulin travel case! Insulin has to be stored as a particular temp, so they are made for storing very cold, small doses!
@Conchi do you know where you’ve read this? As on any NHS colostrum harvesting info page that I’ve seen, it says these will be stored in a fridge/freezer for you. I’ve also read a lot of other birth stories where this was handed to the midwives who stored it ready for baby x
@Sophie they will store for you. Its only in case you get sent home. https://www.nth.nhs.uk/resources/colostrum-harvesting/

Nhs recommend that you leave it at home and ask someone to bring it in when needed. Just in case yiu get sent back. Just use a normal lunch box with ice packs.
