Does anyone know how long breast milk is
good for at room temp, refrigerator and
freezer? I've had to start pumping because
I've not been well and daddy's been taking
care of Brina mostly. I want her to get my
milk so I'm trying my best to do so. Any
comments or help would be appreciated.

That might be slightly off from what Iwas
going to say but its pretty darn close!
I'd go with that.. however I don't know if
i'd leave it at room temp that long, that
just seems gross ha!
