frozen breastmilk
dh and i are having a debate.
if frozen breastmilk is thawed and fed to dd in a bottle, but the bottle is not finished, can the milk be put in the fridge and used to make oatmeal?
dh has a habit of making huge bottles and she never finishes them and he just tosses the milk. as the milk-maker, it is infuriating to me, especially when i've always had a hard time producing much.
Re: frozen breastmilk
Thawed BM is good for up to 24 hrs in the fridge. As long as you are using the milk the same day, it should be fine.
I'd be PO'd if dh or anyone threw away my milk!
I started saving mine in 4-6 ounce increments, so I felt like less was wasted if he didn't finish it.
BM was a very touchy subject in our house - DH learned quick that it was liquid gold to me, so he'd better treat it as such!
ooooh, me too!
oh, i know, i nearly lost it. had to leave the house and go walk the dog. LOL
thanks, ladies. good to know i haven't lost my mind!
eta: oh and i do freeze in cubes. i had a 3oz bottle made and he thought she needed more so he thawed a bit more and then had a bunch left over. argh!
