Patient's question:
During breastfeeding, my physical condition will be very poor. I feel like I've completely collapsed. I also got tested for rheumatoid arthritis, experiencing joint pain all over my body. I don't know how breast milk is formed, and can breast milk be put in the fridge with vegetables?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after expressing breast milk, it should be placed in a sealed bottle or storage bag. The storage time at low temperatures is as follows: refrigerated at 4℃ for 3-5 days, frozen at -16℃ for 3-6 months, and deep-freeze for 6-12 months. Before drinking breast milk, it should first be thawed with flowing 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.
