Is it safe?
Is it safe to put expressed milk in fridge for long periods of time, say three or more months?

Re: Is it safe?
not in the fridge but you can put in the freezer for a few months. theres a link here on kelly.com:
http://www.kellymom.com/bf/pumping/milkstorage.html
its says :
Refrigerator (fresh milk) 8 days
Refrigerator (thawed milk) 24 hours
Freezer compartment
inside refrigerator (older-style) - 2 weeks
Self-contained freezer unit
of a refrigerator/freezer - 3-6 months
Separate deep freeze - 6-12 months
Hope this helps

Yep agree with Helen.
Breastmilk is kept much fresher if you freeze within that day of expressing.
