Okay this is a new one for my books anyway….

A mom called today about a seemingly simple "How long is breast milk good in
the refrigerator" question.  She said the milk was spoiled.  When I asked her
why she believed it was spoiled she said she tasted it and it was very bad
and equated it to spoiled cow’s milk.  She had pumped early and then
refrigerated immediately.  Four hours later she pumped into the same
container and back to the refrigerator it went.  Two days later she took it
out to use and it was bad.  There was no loss of power and the refrigerator
was set at the coolest temp.  This mom sterilizes everything with each use
and seems to be using good technique.  Nothing strange was next to the milk
and she also used a Tupperware type container to keep the sealed bottles in.
 Any suggestions?

This is the strange part….

She said she was pumping because her Pedi recommend it.  The baby (1 month 2
week old) had a grape size lump in her breast.  The Pedi said "It was because
of the hormones present in the breast milk and she would need to temporarily
wean".  Well what do you think?  I was a bit taken back by this explanation
and wondered if anyone else had ever had anything similar.
