If breast milk is placed in a separate freezer set below -18°C, it can even be kept for 3-6 months. After thawing, frozen milk can be kept in the refrigerator for 24h. 2. Although freezing will destroy some of the antibodies in breast milk, even frozen breast milk is still healthier than formula and can provide your baby with more ingredients to fight diseases. 3.
