Patient's question:
Why do you feel so unwell during breastfeeding, as if your whole body is collapsing? I also got tested for rheumatoid arthritis and have joint pain all over my body. I don't know how breast milk is formed. Can unfinished breast milk be reheated and consumed?Doctor's answer:
Hello friend, after expressing breast milk, it should be placed in a sealed bottle or storage bag. The storage time at low temperatures is as follows: in the refrigerator's 4℃ cool compartment, store for 3-5 days; in the freezer's -16℃ compartment, store for 3-6 months; in the deep freeze freezer, store for 6-12 months. Before drinking breast milk, it should first be thawed with running lukewarm water. Do not heat it directly on the stove or in a microwave, as this may damage the nutritional components of the breast milk. After thawing, breast milk should be used up within the same day and cannot be refrozen.
