POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy11 months agoA. The storage time for breast milk depends on the temperature at which it's stored:
1. Room Temperature (up to 77°F or 25°C):
Up to 4 hours is generally considered safe.
2. Refrigerator (at or below 40°F or 4°C):
Up to 4 days. Store breast milk in the back of the fridge where the temperature is most consistent.
3. Freezer (at or below 0°F or -18°C):
Up to 6-12 months. For best quality, use it within 6 months, although it can remain safe beyond that.
4. Thawed Breast Milk:
In the fridge: Use within 24 hours after thawing.
At room temperature: Use within 2 hours if it was thawed by warming or if it was freshly expressed.
Key Points:
Avoid refreezing thawed breast milk.
Label and date milk containers to keep track of storage times.
Always check the milk for changes in smell or appearance before feeding.
Proper storage helps ensure that the milk remains safe and nutritious for your baby.
