I always thought it was cold water, or tap water from the cold tap, not
chilled water, to defrost milk.
Then warm the defrosted milk in warm water, comfortable to the hand, not the
hottest available from the hot tap.
All you want to do is gently defrost it, then gently warm it to body temp.
using drips on the inside of your wrist to gauge body temp.
My perception is that putting a frozen bottle of milk into a warm water bath
is like cooking it due to the temp difference between the frozen milk and
the warm water bath. Am I being overly cautious?

Is there a maximum temperature for the water used when thawing breastmilk?
