hello, how old is baby ?No need to collect and store neither at room temperature or in fridge. We are already having surge in Covid 19,Stay at Home and be safe.

You can store at room temperature for 4 to 6 hours. In fridge for 4 days. After removing from fridge, don't heat it. Warm it slowly in lukewarm water
