Hi.. This is Dr Rubal Jain (MD Pediatrics and Lactation consultant).
Breastmilk, after expression, can be kept at room temperature for 3-4 hours. And if stored in the refrigerator, can be stored for 1 day. And in frozen in the freezer can be saved for 6 months.
Prepared infant formula can get spoil if it is left out at room temperature. Use prepared infant formula within 2 hours of preparation and within one hour from when feeding begins.
