Can you mix breastmilk pumped at diff times into one bag when freezing?
Most of the time I pump enough for a full bag but other times I won't. I was just wondering if it is ok if I mix milk pumped at 2 different times (refrigerated for 1-2 days) and freeze it for later use.

I do. I read somewhere you can do it within the same 24-hr period, but sometimes I go a little longer.

I freeze 4 oz of milk per bag. I usually pump more than 4 oz at a time. I'll mix refrigerated milk from different pumping sessions in order to freeze 4 oz bags. I haven't had a problem mixing BM that I pumped on different days.

I've heard the same. I mixed the other day from two bottles pumped about 24 hours apart.

I used to do this and DS never had a problem.
