A mom has asked me to post re the subject. She went back to work 1 1/2 weeks
ago. Since returning to work her expressed milk curdles when given to her 3
month old baby. She pumps every 4 hours, pours milk into platex bag &
stores in frig. Caregiver pours milk into glass bottle, shakes, & warms in
hot water. The milk curdles when he feeds it to the baby. It curdles more &
becomes frothy with further shaking. They used this same process before her
return to work & with a bottle of frozen milk with no milk curdles. She is
wondering why this is happening since returning to work - could it be
stress. She is also concerned that the baby is not getting the fat content
of the milk if it is remaining on the bottle.
I checked the aschives & found one posting. I suggested not using hot water
to warm the bottle & to shake the milk lightly. Your experience would be
appreciated.
