I guess I have too much lipase in my breast milk and so I can't store it unless I scaled the milk first - which I can't do while at work and my baby won't take formula - any advice? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I've read you can try mixing the non scalded stuff with the scalded but otherwise I'm not sure what you can do. [ Reply | More ]

essentially it means that my milk breaks down really quickly and spoils very quickly. After a day after expressing it it smells a bit funk and my baby won't take it - can't really blame him. [ Reply | More ]

Not that this solves your prob in any way, but I EBF for the first year and relied on pumped milk - maybe - two or three times total. If you pump in the morning is it still good in the PM ? [ Reply | More ]

np. Some people have too much lipase (an enzyme digester) in their breast milk. The lipase digests the fat in the milk and makes it taste off so if it is stored the baby refuses to drink it. Scalding (near boiling) stops the process. [ Reply | More ]

it isn't common - but past of the problem - aside from being just a total PITA is that scalding it takes away some of the immunity benefits. [ Reply | More ]
