Help please: Pumped milk left in cooler

babs324

I accidentally forgot to empty my cooler last night!  I left 3 bottles of pumped milk in my Medela cooler overnight.  It had an ice pack in it that was frozen as of yesterday morning, but some of the milk was in there since about 10 am yesterday. It was not cold when I took it out this morning....but it was on the cooler/room temp side. It does not smell bad. I was checking kellymom, I can't seem to tell what to do.  Do I toss it? That would just break my heart, but more importantly I want lo to be ok!!

I've kept it when I've done it. Just smell before feeding.

Medela says milk left in a cooler w/ ice pack is ok for 24 hrs.

I've done the same thing, and I kept it. LO had no issues.

might sound weird, but just taste it.  you'll know if it is bad.
