| I have frozen breast milk and on our way to visit family it defrosted a little bit before getting it to a freezer again. Is is safe to put it back in the freezer and refreeze it if it hasn't even been opened yet? |

| I think its 6 months freeze, 6 days in the fridge 6 hours out. You can defrosted for 24 hours in the fridge and use it and dont freeze it again if you do not use it. If was a frozen milk and was out less then 6 hours you cant either put it back to fridge. Hope you get it! it is kind of hard to explain for me. .) |

| No, everything I have ever read and heard says it is not safe to refreeze once it has started to thaw, but you can still use it within 24 hours. |

| No you can put in the fridge to defrosted and use it in the 24 hours, but cant freeze or put back to fridge after the time. |

| You could check out the la leche (sp?) league, it has all the details to breast milk storage. |

| my lactation consultant said that once it is defrosted it is not good to refreeze because it deminishes nutrient levels. I think it only goes bad or is unsafe if it sits out at room tempurature for too long. |
