Keeping milk while you are out

khorak7 · April 2009

If I need to take a bottle or sippy of milk while we are out, then how long is it good for? After she drinks out of it, how long is it good for? And if I warm it how long after is it good for? I new to all of this so I thank everyone for your help!

I heard 2 hours is the rule, whether it was warmed up or not.

We use the 2 hour rule.

I try to use it within an hour to be on the safe side. If I know we're going out and won't need milk for a couple hours, I bring Enfamil Next Step formula powder and then mix it with water when DD needs a drink.

If I know we're only going to be out for an hour, I just bring a cold bottle or sippy from the fridge. If we're going to be longer, I use an icepack and insulated bag. There are also "juice boxes" of milk. I tried this with DD once and she didn't seem to mind at all. Kind of handy to just keep a box in the diaper bag since they don't need to be refrigerated.

We just bring water when we're out and about.

If it's going to be a long time I just stop at a local Starbucks and get more milk. I hate lugging around extra milk in a cooler.

I bring an insulated bag and an ice pack each time we go out. Skip hop has an insulator that I want to buy. It holds one bottle/sippy and keeps things cold for 4 hours.
