Default Milk going sour too quickly

I've noticed that suddenly my EBM is going sour really quickly anybody

know
why this is? The temp of the fridge is ok. The only thing I can think of
is that I'm not very well at the moment. I'm waiting to see a

cardiologist
because of a very irregular heartbeat, that is making me feel really

crappy
and tired all the time. I can understand this affecting my supply levels,
which it seems to have, but would it affect the quality of m milk as well?


I don't know what you mean by 'sour'. If 'soapy' is a better description,
maybe it's an excess lipase problem. I've heard this can be corrected by
scalding the milk after pumping and before storing, to deactivate the
lipase. If it's genuinely sour, though, I'm afraid I don't have any idea.
