How long does it take to defrost a bag of frozen BM (~4oz)

I need to leave my LO tonight.  I'm guessing I won't be gone more than one feeding, but I'm not exactly sure how long the errand will take or how much she will need to eat (she's having a really wacky day).  I have 4 ounces of fresh milk in the fridge for my DH which will provide one feeding.  Should I go ahead and thaw another feeding (4 ounces), or could he thaw it if needed?  About how long would it take if he took the bag from the freezer and put it in a bowl of warm/hot water? 

I have frozen in Lansinoh bags and they are frozen flat.  I am trying to build up my stash so I REALLY don't want to thaw if I don't need to! 

Thanks!

    It will only take a few mins max. Just let him wait and see if he needs it.

    Awesome!  Thank you SOOO much.  After my long day home with LO, I desperately need a few hours away from the house but don't want to use my stash if not needed!

    Dh doesnt thaw milk until LO is hungry. So go out and enjoy your time away and dont get into that stash of yours!
