Answer

Google lipase in breastmilk. It can make your breast milk kind of smell but your milk is perfectly fine to drink. Kellymom has some info on it .

Answer

Could be lipase, but also make sure that your are taking the air out of the bags when freezing. Also remember that frozen milk has a shelf life and if you open and close the freezer a lot, it may not last as long.

Answer

Is it freezer burnt? How long has it been in there?

Answer

I've heard that if it smells bad, just like if cow's milk smells bad, it's not okay to drink. Did you follow cleaning protocol on your breast pump? If not, sometimes bacteria can get into the milk and spoil it. I don't know if lipase makes it smell bad but I do know it creates a different color.

Answer

Most of the if its lips sealed it will have a soap taste to it,
