Mom did amazing! She handled those contractions so well! By the time she was 8 cm, she had a few more contractions and thought she had to go to the bathroom. The nurse said, “No, I can’t let you do that. This is your fourth, so it’s probably baby.” Not much longer after that, she pushed the baby out in 3 pushes! 8 lbs 6 oz and 21 inches long! He is a cutie!

The CDC came out with breastmilk safety temperatures in 2010... It's unimaginable what moms did before this (sarcasm) 🙄 It was updated again in 2019 and 2023...

Enter a new small, 2026 study... testing milk from bottles after babies fed from them. Researchers measured bacterial levels over time at room temperature and in the fridge...

😭 Here’s what they found:
• Bacteria increased right after feeding (which makes sense — baby’s mouth introduces normal bacteria).
• But there was no meaningful increase at 4 or even 8 hours, whether the milk was kept around 68°F (20°C) or refrigerated.
• Noticeable growth showed up after 24 hours at room temperature.
• Refrigerated milk remained stable and low-risk for up to 24 hours.

What this suggests for 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆, 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹-𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺 babies:
✔ A partially used bottle can likely be refrigerated and reused within 24 hours.
✔ If needed, it may be reasonable to keep it at room temperature for several hours (up to about 8 hours 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆).
✔They also found that unused pumped milk was often 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 at room temperature than the commonly quoted 4-hour limit, with minimal bacterial growth in many cases.🤯

🥺Billions of breastmilk tossed down the drain....

Important note.

If you have a 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘆, 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗮𝗻𝘁, 𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗡𝗜𝗖𝗨 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝘂𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆.

Breastmilk is incredibly resilient. 💛 Does this change how you feel about leftover milk?
