When you thaw it, it'll have a smell if it's bad and then you can give WCM.

I'd keep some wcm handy just in case. But totally fine!

Go for it!

I was afraid everyone would be like, what's wrong with you?

Use that and if you pump, freeze that and use it as backup.

Unless it was defrosted and then frozen again, don't see why it wouldn't be fine!

It's been in the bottom of our regular freezer since thing. Since I SAH and apparently don't have a life away from LO, I still have most of it in the freezer. We are going to a wedding next weekend and will need to leave two bottles for C with the babysitter. Do I need to pump this week or do you think the frozen ones are OK? They are about a week shy of 6 months old. I know they say 6 months is fine in a deep freezer, but this is just our regular one. I can pump, it's not a big deal, it's just.... I don't feel like it. Or I could give her cow's milk, but since she will be with a babysitter she'll have just met, I want her to have what she is used to.
