If it is frozen breast milk, it should be thawed by soaking in cold water first, and then warmed up in water like refrigerated breast milk. Using a milk warmer to heat the milk. Mothers who want to save time and energy by breastfeeding may wish to prepare a special milk warmer for themselves. Set the temperature of the milk warmer to 40℃ and heat the breast milk in water.
