It can be frozen for several months (exactly how long depends on the type of freezer). It can be in a refrigerator for 24 hours. It can be room temp for 10 hours. Happy pumping and congrats on taking on this commitment to provide your baby with great food!

I was advised to keep it for no longer than 24 hours, although you could freeze any excess in ice cube tray and use it for mixing with baby food when weaning.
