Can I store breast milk in the fridge

[mushie156]

If so for how long?

Anywhere from 5-10 days depend on who you ask. Freezer to 6 months. Once you heat it up you must finish using it. No refreeze. I follow the 555 rules, 5 hours in room temperature, 5 days in refrigerator and 5 months in freezer.
The milk is bad if it smell funny and taste sour but breast milk doesn't spoil easily.

Yikes, you got a wide variety of answers. Google it and find a few different answers from a few different sites that seem credible.

U can store n fridge for 7 days an n the freezer for up to 6 months. This was told to me at a  breastfeeding class a couple days ago.

Make sure it is tightly sealed and you can store it in the frig up to 8 days and freezer for 2 weeks. It's a good idea to date your bottles and bags so you have no worries.  : )
