Patient's question:
Because there's still a little in the fridge, but not enough for the baby's meal. Can the freshly squeezed breast milk be combined with the refrigerated milk?Doctor's answer:
Milk collected at different times should not be stored together. It needs to be stored separately and labeled with the date. Do not mix fresh juice, milk, or other beverages when freezing stored milk. This will affect the nutritional active components of the milk and may easily cause infant diarrhea. To ensure the health and hygiene of the breast milk, mothers must wash their hands thoroughly before expressing milk, and breast pumps must also be properly disinfected. Frozen breast milk that has been thawed and not consumed should not be refrozen and should be discarded.
