At work, we use thawed milk within 24 hours, otherwise it gets tossed. I would never do this for my food, so why would I do it for baby? Depends on your comfort level I guess. I'm not comfortable with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-re-freezing-breastmilk-is-okay#post-366428 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 14:03:56 +0000 runsyellowlites 366428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I came across this blog post that featured a new study (2011) that showed unpasteurized breastmilk perfectly safe after being thawed and re-frozen!</p> <p>That's so awesome, and I'm sure welcomed for us moms that have hated having to toss milk because of power outages or childcare providers not needing the thawed milk!</p> <p>Here's the link to the study!<br /> <a href="http://www.dors.it/latte/docum/Unpasteurized%20Donor%20Human%20Milk.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.dors.it/latte/docum/Unpasteurized%20Donor%20Human%20Milk.pdf</a> </p>
