QuoteReplyTopic: Frozen Breast Milk Posted: 02 October 2006 at 2:23pm
I have a few little bits of frozen milk, and presume it is ok (once thawed) to add them together to make 1 feed? I know that if you have chilled milk, you can't add fresh (unchilled) to it, so I'm just making sure!
Yes definately. I had heaps left over from when Ashleigh was in hospital and seeing as I didn't have enough milk to breastfeed, we were bottle feeding her my frozen milk when we came home. Remember that it only keeps for 3 months though. And the other thing is when you express/breastfeed the first lot of milk (foremilk) is quite runny and not all that nutricious (sp?) and the hindmilk is the fatty milk so one lot you mix together may not be as satisfying as the next if it has more foremilk in it if you get what I mean!!
