I just found out that my husband has been heating up my breast milk in the microwave.

I'm 39 years old and a first-time mom. My husband and I had our baby girl at the beginning of April, and we've been learning on the fly.<br><br>Like any new parent, we've had our share of mistakes, and this may seem minor to some people, but it's been keeping me up at night. I expressed breast milk using a pump and freeze it in bags for whenever I need them. My husband would give the baby this expressed milk when I'm not around. <br><br>However, a few days ago, I left the house with our baby and when I returned home, I had this weird feeling that I can't explain. I checked the freezer and noticed that a bunch of breastmilk bags were thawed out (which meant my baby had already been fed those). I asked my husband about it, and he said that he had warmed it up for the baby with a weird smile on his face. <br><br>I then had an idea. I went to the freezer and left a bag at the same temperature as the rest of the bags there (-160°C). Over the next few days, I'd periodically check on it to see if it had thawed, and it didn't. So, I told my husband that I was going to do something I had been wanting to try with my breastmilk. I asked him to heat it up with the microwave so I could drink it. He heated it up in short-intervals as he had done with our baby, and there were no unusual smells or bubbles. When we drank it, of course, it tasted spoiled. <br><br>He immediately apologized, but I asked him to do it again the following day so I was sure that it was the microwave. He heated the same frozen breastmilk bag in the microwave, and again, it didn't taste good. <br><br>This has been keeping me up at night because I stay up thinking about my baby consuming spoiled milk. My husband could have caused our baby to get really sick. I don't understand how he didn't know that it was bad. It just doesn't make sense. I'm considering going back to formula because I still have a lot of frozen breastmilk.
