Breast milk at room temperature—I'm totally confused about this, what should I do?

I understand your confusion about storing breast milk at room temperature; this is one of those details that confuses everyone. According to current pediatric guidelines, freshly expressed breast milk can be safely stored at room temperature (no higher than 25°C) for a maximum of 4 hours. If the room is warmer (like on a hot summer day), this time drops to 2 hours.
It's safest to put any milk your baby won't drink right away straight in the fridge. In the refrigerator (4°C) it lasts up to 4 days, and in the freezer it can be stored for 6 months. Don't put unused room-temperature milk back in the fridge—it needs to be used or discarded within however long it was left out.
