How long is breast milk good?

Is it 4 hours or longer? We are traveling on a 2 hour trip to visit family so I'm going to pump him bottles for the road. Do newborns not like it if its not as warm as from the tit? Can I refrigerate it then warm it back up?

pack them in a cooler then warm it up in a bottle warmer or sit the bottle in a cup of hot water.

How long can I keep it in the cooler?

It will be fine. You can also put it in a mini cooler and then hear it up in hot water.

If you wanted to warm it up, you can either get a bottle travel warmer, carry along a regular bottle warmer and plug it up at rest areas or restaurants with access to a plug, or you could go into the gas station with the bottle and get a coffee cup and pour hot water into it and put the bottle in that for a few minutes to nuke it. I've done all three. Depends on who you are traveling with and how much time you are willing to take to warm it up.

Thanks!   that helped a lot
