Transporting BM w/o cooler bag?

I left my cooler bag at home today.  (I swear, one day I forget tubing, another day I forget the funnel part, today it's the cooler bag).


Do you think the BM will be safe if I put it in a ziplock bag filled with ice cubes?  I'm improvising here :)  It's already refridgerated for about 5 hours and I live one hour from work. It'll be refridgerated right after I get home.

TIA!

  • Absolutely fine. Breastmilk is fine at room temperature for up to 10 hours, so it'll be more than fine on ice for an hour! :)
