Will frozen juice explode?

Frozen juice can expand and potentially burst its container due to the formation of ice crystals as the liquid freezes. This expansion occurs because water expands when it freezes, and if the container is sealed tightly, the pressure can build up enough to cause an explosion. To prevent this, it's advisable to leave some space in the container for the juice to expand.

How do I properly warm up frozen breast milk for my baby?

To properly warm up frozen breast milk for your baby, place the frozen milk in the refrigerator overnight to thaw. Alternatively, you can run the sealed container under warm water or place it in a bowl of warm water until it reaches the desired temperature. Avoid using a microwave to heat breast milk as it can destroy nutrients and create hot spots that can burn your baby's mouth. Shake the container gently to mix the milk before feeding it to your baby.
