Frozen breast milk gone bad???
« on: April 03, 2014, 00:54:06 am »
I fed my daughter a bottle of breastmilk that I pumped two months ago (it was frozen). She threw it all up after 5 minutes. Does this mean it was bad? Maybe she drank it too quickly?

Usually you can keep frozen breastmilk in the freezer for 3 months or a deep freezer for longer. As long as you froze it right away- or within a short time then you should be fine. It was possibly unrelated.

This happened a few times with DD1 when we 1st started
giving her full bottle feeds.we put it down to the fact that
she was drinking much faster&not enough winding.

I agree it should be fine. Like any milk, it would smell 'off' if it were bad.
