Can you reheat babies milk (and out it in the fridge)?

Question

My daughter drinks breastmilk and cows milk mixed. She didn’t drink much so I decided to put it in the fridge to reheat for later...my sister in law gave me a fricken lecture of how I should do that...
Is this true? Is it not safe? I’ve been doing this here and there...if it is safe, does it matter how many times I place it in the fridge and reheat it?

Answer

I wouldn't do it more than once but if it isn't drank before an hour you can put it in the fridge for later.

Answer

After an hour or two it would be a good idea to dump it. Once a baby has drunk off a bottle, that milk should be discarded after an hour or two. That's because babies backwash and the bacteria in their saliva really enjoys it's time in milk and will spoil the milk. It's also why you should never drink off the jug/carton of milk and you should always pour it into a glass

Answer

I was told once baby drinks from a bottle, dump it after an hour. It can harbor bacteria and make them sick, so I just always dumped. If I made a bottle and they didn’t drink any, I would put in the fridge and make sure they drink it within 12 hours.

Answer

Why wouldn’t it be safe? Lol although I’ve never given my daughter warmed cows milk, i have mixed formula and milk together and it was warm because of hot water i used to make the formula...
