| Does refrigerated milk really last 7 days? I've heard everything from 24 hrs to 72 hrs - but this is the first time I learned it could keep for up to a week! I've even thrown out one bottle of milk after 24 hrs when the baby slept past that time for his EBM feed! (I am NEVER doing that again. Watching the milk go down the drain was just too traumatic!)
Sarah, thanks for the ice cube tip! I'll try to freeze smaller quantities in the bag and then use those for top-ups in case it's not enough.
Kellyst, altho I've just started and only have 4 bags in the freezer so far, I did buy 2 boxes of Lansinoh bags (50 in total) so I really really hope that my baby won't reject the frozen milk. (But I will definitely try feeding it to him soon just to be sure he'll take it!) |
