Pumped milk rules

[carissa325]

How hard and fast are the rules in pumped milk? I know they say throw it out after 6 hours of not refrigerated but is 7 hours ok in a pinch?

I never went over 6 unrefrigerated because I'm paranoid, but I think this is a use-your-best judgment scenario. 7 hours on the kitchen counter or in your diaper bag on the go is different from a chilly spot near the air conditioner. I'd always smell it just to be sure.

Smell it. If it stinks, it's bad.

Thanks girls. I went by smell and gave it to her and she was fine with it.
