Frozen breast milk is a solution for mothers who produce a lot of milk or have to be away from their babies when returning to work. Although thawing breast milk is a simple task, if parents do not understand the rules, they can accidentally cause the milk to lose nutrients.

Breast milk after heating or thawing can only be used within 24 hours and needs to be kept in the refrigerator. After this period of time, if the baby does not finish drinking, the mother must throw away the remaining milk. This milk cannot be used to make yogurt from breast milk but must be discarded.

Exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months is a great idea. However, expressing and storing breast milk requires hygiene and safe storage temperatures.

Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for children, especially children under 1 year old, because breast milk contains all the necessary nutrients. When a mother has to go back to work soon after giving birth and cannot breastfeed her baby, the best way is to express milk and leave it at home for the baby to eat.
