Is my milk spoiled?

Is my milk spoiled?

Last night at 11pm the lightbulb in the fridge was out so I thought it was just the bulb. Then this morning at 4:30am I went to put my pumped milk in the fridge and I realized it wasn't as cool as it should be it. It turns out the circuit breaker tripped and the fridge was off all night. So it was put back on at 5am. So it was off for 6 hours. The door was not opened all night. I have about 30 oz of BM in the fridge. The bottles feel cool but not as cold as they usually are when the fridge is on. Do I have to dump them or are they still good? I am very upset that all the BM might be wasted! There is no way I am going to be able to catch up to my DD demand if I have to dump all that milk. Should I smell it to see if it is still good. If it is spoiled would it smell like spoiled cow's mlik? I don't want to waste the BM but I don't want to give DD bad milk either.

Fresh BM can last 5 days if kept cool. When in doubt, smell it or taste a bit on your finger.

I just smelt it and it doesn't smell bad. I hope it is all still good.

BM can endure more that we imagine.
