Im a pumping/working mom..
I failed to put the bottle of milk in the fridge with 1.5 oz pumped in it before bed last night at around 10:15.
My husband noticed it at 6:15-6:30 this morning as he left for work.
The Internet tells me 8 hrs at rm temperature is ok... Do i trust it? Should I taste it for spoilage? Dump it?

Trying for our first since April 2011

    Yes, clean and fresh. I guess after I cleaned and reassembled the pump I just forgot to put the bottle in the fridge. I feel like an idiot. I've not been pumping as much as my daughter eats while I'm away at work. So I was playing catch up this weekend.

    The advice I see on this board a lot is to just give it the 'ol sniff test. You'll know spoiled milk once you smell it. But it's most likely fine.

    I sniffed it and I wasn't so sure. As much as it pained me, I dumped it.
