Unused milk

If I take bm from the fridge (not frozen or thawed) and warm up for baby to drink, but the baby doesn’t finish the milk, can I put back the unused milk in the fridge for the next feed? Or must strictly discard?

I wouldn’t recommend putting it back. Higher risk of bacterial growth. I would cap the bottle and leave it at room temperature for an hour. If baby feeds again within that time, then I will use that bottle. I also roughly know how much baby drinks, so I divide my bm into suitable volume portions to minimise wastage:)
