Can You Refreeze Breast Milk

Q&A: Can You Refreeze Breast Milk?

No, you should never refreeze breast milk after it is thawed.

You must use it within 24 hours of when it has fully thawed. If the breast milk is not thawed and still has ice crystals, you may refreeze it.


PRO-TIP: 

A good way to avoid wasting precious liquid gold is to store, thaw, and warm breast milk in smaller quantities.

We always recommend THESE awesome containers because they safely freeze your breast milk in tiny portions so you can thaw JUST the amount you need — no more wasted milk or messy bags!
