A question has come to me from a mom who has adopted a 3-week old infant. She would like to give the new baby EBM from another mom friend of hers who has stored up bunches of frozen milk. The problem: the milk is 4 months old. I have references that show frozen milk to be good in a refrigerator freezer for 3 months, 6 months and 12 months. I always tell moms that milk is good for 3 months from a refrigerator freezer. Which is the right answer, and is it safe for this mom to feed her adopted infant this milk? Thanks for any input- Brenda Phipps, BS, IBCLC
