breast milk separating more now?

*wicket* · March 2010

My milk has always separated a bit where the fat floats at the top. Lately, my milk is separating even more. There will be a "layer" at the bottom of the bottle that is nearly clear liquid. It happens after only a few hours (in the fridge and at room temp). It mixes back together when I swirl the bottle and DS hasn't complained about it at all, so I know it hasn't gone bad. Has anyone else seen this happen?

Yes! I just started noticing it this week. The bottom is almost bluish. Looks like our LOs are about the same age. I have no idea why, though.

Mine does this too...I think it's normal...the cream rises to the top and it does so with BM too. I just make sure to shake it up so that it's all incorporated before transferring it to DD's bottle.
