Following a search of the archives, I pose this question to those
working in the NICU:

 

How long can freshly expressed (pumped-not previously refrigerated)
colostrum or breast milk be left at room temperature at your
institution?

 

Here at our hospital, we have a time limit of 1 hour.  Is this
consistent with what your hospitals practice?

 

 

Thanks in advance, 

Cathy Carnaby, RNC, IBCLC
