Storing Breastmilk

[bumpinbaby1995]

When you store Breastmilk do you have to freeze it or can you refrigerate it ? , or maybe both ?.

Just remember if you freeze it when warming it up do not shake the bottle it breaks down the fat baby needs to grow. Instead stir the milk. When it cools you will usually see it separate that's why you need to stir to mix it back up again.

Fridge is good for 4 days regular freezer 3-4 month and deep freezer 6-12 that's what the lactation consultant told me

In the fridge it can last anywhere from 4-6 days but if you freeze it, it's good 6-12 months
