WCM "rules"

Now that we have made the transition to WCM, I was wondering what the rules are for it?  Like how long you can leave it out before dumping it?  Can you warm it up and re-refrigerate if LO doesn't finish?  Etc...?

Re: WCM "rules"

  • I wouldn't leave it out long, ew... a gross, warm glass of milk sounds so nasty to me. I also wouldn't warm and re-refrigerate. We don't warm any of DS's bottles though, and we did this so that when we transitioned to milk he wouldn't have a problem taking it cold.

  • SadDS won't really drink it cold, I've tried!  I think he's too used to daycare warming up his formula :(
  • I fill a sip cup in the morning and whatever she doesn't drink i put back in the fridge for lunch. If she still doesn't finish that then I toss it. I used to warm up her milk when we first switched but never put it back in the fridge. 
  • Like PP have said, don't re-refrigerate warmed up milk. If the milk still feels cold, then I would re-refrigerate any left over milk. But if it's been out for more than an hour, I would get new milk to serve for the next meal.

    Your LO might take the milk cold if you start putting it in a sippy cup (or whatever other cup you'd like to use).

    DS still isn't getting the hang of the sippy, but I guess we'll just keep trying that
  • If you warm it I would not reuse. I warm WCM as well. If my son doesn't finish it. I usually just use it in my coffee or tea. I dont let him drink it.
