I'm sharing personal experience and opinion here, since I don't
believe there's enough of a body of research to make hard and fast
recommendations.
I re-offered fresh milk (less than about three days in the fridge)
for up to two or three hours with no problems, over an expressing
"career" of 14.5 months. Given the active bactericidal qualities of
fresh milk, I felt comfortable that a small inoculum of my son's own
mouth bacteria would not cause the milk to rapidly become harmful.
Though research has shown that unpasteurised frozen milk is also
antibacterial, I chose to set the limit at one hour for thawed milk.

You've never left a full bottle of EBM in the car in the hot sun for
a week, then? ;)
