I only pump about 1-3 oz per session, so I had left some in the fridge from yesterday and today & scalded it all (total around 7 ozs). Now that I think about it - isn't this bad? The milk was expressed, then refrigerated,then heated, and now will be frozen..... Am I supposed to scald immediately after expression, then freeze?
TIA - hope some of you may have done this before....
Re: Lipase/Freezing/scalding question
Yes, you are supposed to do it immediately after pumping. I didn't find that out until I had given many bottles to DD that had been scalded like 3 days later! She's okay, but I do feel bad. I mean what are you supposed to do if you pump at work?
ugh - thanks for the response, I was thinking it seemed wrong. Too bad I only get little measley amounts when I pump, and yeah, so much for pumping at work to freeze.
oh well.
