I mean when breast milk goes into bottle. For example, the antibodies and other nutrients due to temperature and environmental change. Does it reduce the quality of the breast milk in the bottle.

It's still healthier than formula, but there are some differences between feeding expressed milk and direct breastfeeding.
With feeding expressed milk, if the baby isn't ever nursing at the breast and you are only bottlefeeding the milk, the antibodies are still there but they don't change and respond to baby's needs as well without the mouth-to-breast contact.
If you are exclusively bottlefeeding expressed milk, the dental benefits associated with breastfeeding are obviously not there.
If you will use the pumped milk within 7 days, avoid freezing it and instead store it in the fridge. Freezing and thawing can diminish some of the good properties of the milk.

When pumping your breast milk into a bottle shouldn't diminish anything. Try to avoid pumping your milk and putting it into the fridge. Freezing it will be much better. Try to either pump you milk when you need it or maybe 30 Min's. before you need it. This way the milk will still be a body temp and you wont have to microwave it. (very bad for baby and breast milk). When you Freeze it you can thaw it for like 10 to 30 Min's and it should be a room temp. Electric pumps are so much better and easier than manual pumps. Happy pumping and you have no worries sweetie.

it really is easily alright to grant him expressed milk in a bottle. it really is an same element as from the breast... only takes somewhat extra time to practice. both from the breast or through a bottle, mommy's milk is continually the suitable selection! I have had moments at the same time as it regarded my daughter changed into uninterested with hte breast to boot yet I saved at it! wish this enables you some!

Yes, slightly. But no worries. Better then nothing.
Unless you place the expressed milk into the fridge for too long- more then 2 mths in the freezer / fridge more then 48hrs, the quality will turn sour and bad.
always keep yr expressed milk in a airtight container in the fridge, far away from foods.

breast milk quality is most likely to dedinish if you heat it up too harshly...by using the miscowave for example.
heat milk slowly by emersing bottle in warm water. miscowaving destroys some of the milk's quality
peace be with you and your family

No, but remember there are no preservatives in the breast milk, so it can't be kept stored for very long.'

No, but remember not to warm breastmilk in the microwave because that does zap the nutrients.
