Pumped BM that was chilled, then heated, then chilled again-

lauren&matt · January 2009

can it be heated again and used??

I was making 4 oz bottles... DD was drinking about 3 oz so there was an oz left. Dh stuck in in the frig. Is it okay? Or should I toss it?? (aka- give it to the dog; he loves BM!!!! lolz!)?

I don't think you are supposed to use anything over that has touched the baby's saliva.....baby backwash!!!!!

Yep get rid of it.

If it was heated just the prior feeding (a few hours ago), I personally would use it.

Just wondering if you wash everything the baby drools on every time she drools...

Do you wash her paci if she's used it just a few hours prior? I don't. And my son has never had an issue with it.

If it had just sat out for an hour than I'd use it, but since it's been heated and chilled it should go.

No I do not wash her pacifier but do some research before you give bad advice.....this is in regard to formula but is the same idea for BM

Bacteria that are naturally present in the baby's saliva can transfer into the formula and grow rapidly in the nutrient-rich product.

I would have guessed to toss it, but apparently kellymom thinks it's ok to reuse at the next feeding ... I guess ask your pedi or go with what you feel comfortable with!
