Breastmilk like gold!

lchitt

I have a very low supply and have all along. I plan to pump for another week or so and then give up. It is just not worth the time to get so little. My LO never got a good latch and I gave up too because I had nothing. Anyways...my question is...if she doesn't finish a bottle of breastmilk is it ok to reuse the bottle since these days breastmilk is like gold?

My rule is to put it in the fridge and try again for one more feeding. My daughter is EBF and I'm trying my hardest to keep up pumping at work so if she refuses a bottle, she definitely gets it again!

How old is your baby? You don't necessarily have to give up if you don't want to.

I have always reused it once before discarding.  I dont think I have ever had to throw any out except maybe a half oz or so once or twice.
