How long is thawed BM good for?
I am BFing and pump to send BM to the babysitter. On occasion I send frozen BM to the sitter. My question is, after you thaw out frozen BM and start to feed the baby, how long is the bottle good for? TIA

I always used it within 24 hours. When I was using up my freezer supply, I would thaw a 1 day supply at a time.

thanks for the info ladies, I just found the info on kellymom....it states
"If baby does not finish milk at one feeding, it may be refrigerated and offered at the next feeding before it is discarded"
