Milk left on counter overnight...is it still ok?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
In my sleep deprived haze, I left 2 4 oz bottles of frozen breast milk on the kitchen counter last night and forgot about them until this morning. They were thawed and room temp this morning. Milk was out for around 8 to 9 hrs. it smells fine. It would make me sad to throw it away, but is it still safe to give my 3 1/2 month baby?

I'd taste it first, if it tasted fine I would use them, but I'd use them asap and not refreeze.

 

(My baby was a (mostly) healthy term baby, so I had no health worries to be careful about. If he had been immune suppressed or medically fragile I would not.)
