Yes you can continue to pump breast milk into the same baby bottle all day long if you want too and there's no harm in doing so.

But I would recommend having more than one breast milk pumping baby bottle to pump the milk in so that you can store the extra and freeze it for use later.

So if you're producing a lot of breast milk and want to pump it all out in that one day then it would be best to pump the extra milk that the baby is not using into some other bottles for storage.

Although you could pump the breast milk into one bottle and transfer the milk into a jug or something else that you can safely freeze or refrigerate.

I used to pump breast milk into a few bottles when I was really producing a lot of breast milk one day and then I would use an empty milk jug to put the breast milk into the jug and then refrigerate it for use later.
