Instead of filling a pitcher all day, can I put expressed milk straight into the bottle I will feed the baby with the next day?
So was thinking washing and sterilising all the bottles I need for the next day, then put them in the fridge and as I pump pouring into the bottles so they are ready and I can see I have enough for the next day?
I know not to mix the warm and cold milk together straight away.
Just wondered if any downside to this? Was thinking less washing and sterilising of a pitcher?

No downsides Nope. I do this. I usually pump for 2 days ahead, so baby has milk from the day before yesterday. The advice on mixing temperatures has also changed. I mix temperatures when I need to

That’s what I did! Downside is if you know baby is going to take a smaller feed you may be pouring out of the bottle at the last minute so as not to waste it. I didn’t mind. Tough with one hand if you’re also holding baby but I managed even that.
Thank you both!
