Question about combining frozen Breast Milk

3 replies

Hello, wonder if somebody can help me out. Is it OK to put two bags of frozen breast milk once they have thawed into one bottle? the breast milk has been expressed and frozen on different days. I freeze my milk in 2 and 4oz's but DD seems to be wanting more than 4oz when given a bottle and I just wondered if instead of putting into separate bottles can I put them both into one - hope that makes sense! thanks

Its fine to combine the two bags. I always froze in 60mls, and then just combined to give an appropriate amount.

Yes, also def a good idea to freeze in smallish amounts so you can be more flexible with amounts offered and this is less likely to lead to waste. (I used to cherish every hard-pumped for drop!)

That's great thanks for that, will do that from now on. I know what you mean racers, I treat the EBM like gold!
