Accidentally thawed milk

Problem #1: I have a doctors appointment tomorrow and there will be a chance I can't feed until I'm done.
Problem #2: while leaving the hospital (we just got discharged from the NICU today
) my precious colostrum that had been stored in small syringes melted in the cooler. We discharged at 2:00pm.
The now thawed colostrum is in the fridge.
1) Can I combine all the colostrum and feed it to Robert in a bottle? It was pumped over a span of 4 days
2) It was frozen at discharge and had thawed by 5ish, but it was in a cooler of other bigger frozen bottles that acted like ice packs so they were still chill. When do you think they expire?
