breastmilk in mason jar??

Question

so im exclusively pumping bc my lo doesnt get a good latch so i pump every 2.5 hours and i can get a good 3-4 oz every pump session. i only have 2 bottles that i can pump into. so i wanted to know if anyone has used like the pitcher method. i want to pump my milk, store in the fridge and then when cold enough pour into a 32 oz mason jar so that i can have bottles to pump into. and then just keep the mason jar in the fridge bc lo does eat around 3 oz every 2.5 hours. so he does eat a lot of my pump session milk. 
has anyone tried storing milk in mason jars in the fridge? i try to look up similar stories online but its all for freezing, i dont want to freeze all my milk. i have bags for freezing.

Answer

Breast milk is only good in the fridge for 4-5 days. So you would need a new jar for every time you pump so you can keep track of it accurately.

Answer

Yes, I stored expressed milk in large glass bottles when I pumped for my second daughter. A mason jar would be fine.

Answer

Yep, I store my breastmilk in small mason jars. I use a dry erase marker to mark the dates so I can keep track of when it needs to be used by. It's actually really handy. Just remember that breastmilk is only good for about 4 days in the fridge.

Answer

You can only store what you pump in that day in the same jar. I would suggest using smaller mason jars and labeling them to keep track

Answer

Why not get breastmilk storage bags?
