A member asked:
Is it better to store breast milk in bottles or bags?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Either will do well: You can choose your preference bags or bottles as long as they are made especially for storage. My wife used/uses the lansinoh breastmilk storage bags.

See below: If the plastic bags are bpa free they are probably ok. The safest will always be glass bottles that have been sterilized between use.
