I have been pumping and freezing excess milk for the last 2 weeks
I thawed out my oldest expressed milk from the freezer which was 2 weeks old to test it- it had a metallic taste which was strong but not terrible, and my LO still took it
I suspect I have an excess lipase problem
Considering that my LO doesn't mind the metallic taste, I'm weighing up between continuing to pump and freeze or scalding the milk and compromise the nutritional value.
As I'm going back to work at 3 months, my goal is to build up a supply as I won't have time to routinely pump at work- hardly have time to have lunch myself!
My question is to people who have experienced this- will the metallic taste continue to increase the longer it is kept in the freezer?
Thank you in advance!
