Breast Milk Left Out

ariel8200 · January 2015

Hi all

I have all of my frozen breast-milk in a plastic Tupperware like container in the freezer seperated by date. Last night I took some milk out and then I left the whole container out. The container was shut, so when I noticed it this morning it was all still cold and most of it still had ice in the bag, so the milk was partially thawed.If I remember correctly, the milk that is not all the way thawed can be re-frozen right? Thanks for your help.

(Yes, I'm totally freaking out, that was a lot of hard work.)

it should be fine if it still had ice crystals in it in the morning: https://kellymom.com/bf/pumpingmoms/milkstorage/frozen-milk-power-outage/

you might want to mark the bags that were left out just in case. then when you thaw them in the future, you know to give them an extra sniff to make sure the milk seems okay.

Thank you, that's what I plan to do. Ugh, what a start to the morning.
