Default Freezing breastmilk

Hi all:

A simple question: Can I freeze breastmilk in ice cube trays, then put
into freezer bags? I just started my boy on rice cereal and mix it with
just a bit of breastmilk. When making foods for him later I plan to use
a bit of breastmilk in that too at first, but I don't need a whole
bottle of it. I also don't want to bother pumping just a bit every day
or two.

What thinks you?

Thanks,

KD & G

Simple answer: Yes. Use a clean tray and transfer to bag sooner than later.
You should be good.

An alternative to consider is to hand express into his cereal. I did this
for DD. As you said, you don't need much, and pumping is a hassle.
