To warm up breast milk, simply hold the thawed (thawing overnight in fridge can help shorten warming time, thawed milk can be kept in the fridge for up to 24 hours, do not refreeze thawed milk) milk under lukewarm running water to warm it up. Alternatively, you can also place the sealed container holding the thawed milk into a bowl of warm water for about 20 mins to bring it to body temperature (around 37 degrees). Be sure to avoid using hot water so that you can preserve the full nutritional value of breast milk. When warming, make sure that the mouth of the container is above the level of water. After warming, swirls the container to mix the cream. Do not reuse any unfinished breast milk. The milk could be “contaminated” by the bacteria from your baby’s mouth. It is best to discard. If your baby consistently fails to finish the whole bottle, you can try putting a smaller amount into the bottle for each feeding. In the event that your baby appeared to want more, you can always prepare another bottle for her. This will help minimize wastage.

If you are using a bottle warmer, there is an indicator that shows where you should turn to for warming milk which is about 40 degrees celcius and warm it for 4-6 minutes. Any temperature higher than this will break down the nutrients in the milk. Do not warm up the milk in a microwave because uneven pockets of scalding milk can form. The milk will also continue to heat up for some time after you've taken it out of the microwave. Some babies have had burns to the mouth and throat after drinking microwaved milk. If baby finishes the milk halfway, you can keep it at room temperature for 1 hour maximum. Do not put it back into the fridge or refreeze. Or you can organise them in smaller amount so that it will minimise the wastage.
