How to heat stored breast milk

Stored breastmilk can be heated by scalding in water or by a milk warmer. 1. Scalding in water: you can soak the breastmilk container in warm water at a temperature of about 40-50°C so that the milk absorbs the heat in the water and becomes warm, while soaking, you should occasionally shake the container so that the breastmilk is heated evenly. If it is frozen breastmilk, soak it in cold water to thaw it first, and then heat it in the same way as frozen breastmilk. 2. Milk warmer heating: You can set the temperature of the milk warmer at 40℃ and heat the breastmilk in water, you should put the bottle first and then add water, the height of the water surface is about 2cm below the port of the milk warmer, the milk that is not finished can be put back into the milk warmer to keep it warm, and then take it out when you need to drink, but the time should not be too long, compared with the water separation method It is easier to control the temperature compared to the water barrier method. In addition, it is best not to heat breastmilk directly on the stove or in the microwave oven, and not to boil the bottle in hot water to avoid high temperatures and uneven heating, which can destroy the nutrients in breastmilk. It is normal for breastmilk to be stratified after being frozen. Just shake it gently when adding warmth, and avoid violent shaking to destroy the ingredients. After thawing, it is recommended to drink the breast milk at once and not to freeze it again. It is recommended to write down the time on the storage bag and store it in the right amount according to the baby’s milk volume, and drink the earliest batch first when you take it out.
