ALL of my freezer milk is bad?!

Question

My daughter doesn't take bottles anyway but everytime I try, and thaw milk to use the milk smells slightly bad. What could have gone wrong? I didn't have this problem eith my son as long as I froze the milk with no air bubbles.

Answer

As I’m thawing my oldest milk from the week after baby was born which was still transitioning from colostrum I’m mixing it with current pumped milk like 2 oz frozen to 6 oz new. I’d read some babies won’t take the older stuff months later since it tastes different from what they’re later accustomed to. Wonder if you could do that mixing it with formula.

Answer

Some people have something in their milk that makes it smell funny when frozen.  (Cant remember what its called)I had it with my first and now not with my second

Answer

I’m having this problem now. It’s called lipase 😩

Answer

Some forums I’ve read to mix with fresh milk or add organice vanilla extract to it.

Answer

Lipase can make the milk taste sour and smell weird but it’s still safe to drink

Answer

It’s high lipase. I have it. It makes the milk smell and taste a little sour. It’s not bad for the baby to drink though, but they might not drink it. My daughter wouldn’t drink it, but my son does.
