I would be very scared to use the milk that was exposed to mold, but I also would be scared to use artificial milk, all because the infant is a very preterm infant.
I am not sure what the proper protocol would be, however, I would be inclined to have the exposed milk pasteurized by one of the home methods. The milk now pumped with the clean kit should be used, and possibly interspersed with the pasteurized milk, but giving a predominance of fresh milk.
Of course, of critical importance is the education of the mother on the proper care and cleaning of her pump parts, the pump body, handling of the milk, etc. And tracing back to where and why the lack of education occurred.
