When you pump how long does it last in fridge/freezer?

Could be wrong but I'm sure in the fridge breastmilk lasts 3-5 days? But in the freezer it lasts 6 months Smile

6, 6, 6

Hours at room temperature, days in the fridge, months in the freezer

Have a look at kellymom here

To add to this, a few people (including me) find their milk tastes soapy after only a short while in the fridge or freezer, eg after 6-12 hours rather than the 4/5 days it's supposed to last. This is due to excess lipase. If you find your DC doesn't like anything except very fresh milk it's worth doing a taste test yourself to see if you have this.
