Breastpump to hospital

Question

If im planning to bring my breastpump to hospital, can i just wash & sanitize my breastpump 2 weeks before edd & put it in a new ziplock bag and bring it? Will i be able to use straightaway from the ziplock ? In the event i need to use in hosp. And yes i know hosp will encourage latching but just bringing in case. #FTM

I brought my pump but didn’t use it in the end. I think there’s no need to bring as baby will just direct latch and there won’t be much milk to pump out during the first few days after birth. Can just do hand express if anything. My milk only came in around day 3 and by day 4 I was already discharged hahaha.
