Do I have to throw it away? :-(

It took 2 sittings this morning to express 4ozs of milk I put it straight in the fridge after expressing and I have just warmed it through and given it to DS but he has fallen asleep after just 1 oz. Do I have to throw away the remaining 3oz? I obviously don't want to make him poorly but but that milk is precious

iirc you have an hour before it should be chucked away after heating...

Will he drink some in his sleep iykwim, like a dream feed?

Huge sympathies as I expressed too and remember the feeling when I had to wash all that hard work down the drain!

The advice from Kellymom was that it could be reused by the same baby here

Thank you both for your quick replies Hmm I'm not sure what to do now. Nothing I do will get him to feed if he is too tired, little monkey!
