FYI!

Have you heard of the "double freezing method" to keep your frozen breastmilk frozen? Bad idea. 🚫
SPREAD THE WORD!
Advice has circulated claiming to protect frozen breastmilk from thawing by placing quart bags filled with smaller bags of milk into larger bags filled with cold water and then freezing them solid. HOWEVER Field tests have shown that the milk bags inside thaw in the cold water before re-freezing.
The best things you can do to prepare for potential power outage include:
- Before a storm or other known potential hazard event, note the position of the fridge/freezer temperature control. Turn the control to the coldest setting.
- Make sure that your freezer is as full as possible with your milk in the center. A full freezer stays frozen for much longer (48 hours) than a partially full freezer (24 hours).
- Fill empty space in the freezer with crumpled newspaper. This may help to reduce air flow.
- Keep the freezer door completely closed.

Mama has her hands full nursing/feeding Baby Tia, so I’m feedin’ mama her dinner. My pleasure. So much respect to her and all mamas out there holding it down and running things. Just landed and good to get all my girl’s settled in. Now, I gotta go satisfy my own appetite. Iron Paradise, here I come."

Trigger warning - loss
This MUST change. Women in the United States deserve better. Their families deserve better.
