how long is it good for after you thaw your milk? and can you store it in a cooler? or can you store it at room temperature for 4 hours still or not? i really need to know because we're going on a 5 hour car ride up to my parents cottage and so i won't be able to take her out of her car seat to feed. I want to have something in the truck and not the cooler so i have something there and so i won't have to make them pull over. Last time i just brought a ready to go can of goodstart and she literally went nuts(must have gave her a stomach ache) on the way home and she never does that so i don't want to do it again. please answer if you can help,thanks!! ↓

If I remember correctly after you thaw it it is good for about 20 hours if it is refrigerated. ↑

we drove 2400 mile straight with a 5month old and what worked good for me was to pump every two hours in the car and then put in bottle to feed him when ever he was hungy, alot less stops that way. good luck!!!! ↑
