Reheating unused breastmilk a second time?

Question

So this morning at 4 am by husband warmed up 2 bottles of pumped breastmilk for our son. Baby wasn't as hungry as he usually is & only ended up drinking one bottle so I placed the unused bottle back into the fridge immediately. I'm wondering if that bottle can now be reheated again to give to my baby . The bottle was warmed up under warm water from the faucet & was still partially Cold when my husband started the feeding . Is it safe to reheat it again?

Answer

Can't reheat it. It's good at room temp for 6-8 hours. 72 hours in the fridge. Once you take it out and heat it, it can't go back in the fridge. But you can leave it out, and use within the 6-8 hour time frame. Otherwise, chuck it.

Answer

I believe it is as long as baby didn't drink out of it.

Answer

The lactation nurse I see says once milk is warmed up it's only good for 1-2 hous. The daycare my LO goes to only uses it for 1 hour. I'll do 2 hours. You need to throw it away. It's better to be safe.

Answer

Everything I've read says its good for 24 hours
