Rule of Thumb in handling expressed breast milk (EBM)

This took me weeks to remember! Tapi demi anak..for the sake of my dear son, I FORCED myself to memorize it. Phewh~



It's not easy to pump our precious milk isn't it? So don't let it go to waste just because of our own ignorance!

Sakit belakang2 nak pump tengah malam lah, in between office hours lah...

 Sooooo, have to remember how long can our milk stay on the sofa before we chill it... Or perhaps how many days can we have the caregiver keep the same bottle of milk chilled before it goes bad.

Remember,  this is THE RULE OF THUMB! I once gave my son Umar 3 bottles of milk which I had thawed two days before, since he stayed home that day not going to the babysitter.  The next day my poor boy had diarrhea.... The poor thing! Sniff~ I promised myself after that that I would be more alert on the RULE OF THUMB.
