Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Breast milk can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 5 days, not 3 months. Storing breast milk for too long can cause it to spoil and become unsafe for the infant to consume. It is important for the mother to understand proper storage techniques to ensure the safety and quality of the breast milk for her infant.
