Babies: 0 - 3 Months

reheating breast milk?!

i just warmed up a bottle of pumped milk for LO and he barely took it. is this entire bottle wasted, or am i able to reheat it later?!

  • yes, but just once.. read kellymom.com

  • you can refrigerate and reheat one more time, but smell the milk before you give it to LO to make sure its still good.
  • totally fine for one more feeding but if he doesn't finish it then you need to toss.  for now - refrigerate - and re-heat when he's ready.  I usually put a fresh nipple on the bottle too. 
    Wheee!
