Hi Kara.

Thank you for your offer...where were you when I needed you. ;-) My DD has recently started solids & is preferring it over BM, so I believe our current stash will take us all the way to 1 year! Thank you so much for doing this as I am sure another mama and baby will benefit from your "liquid gold" donation.

All the best!

Hi,

I am vegan and eat a whole foods (mostly organic) diet. I have about 90 oz of breast milk to donate. I had a clean blood panel when I was pregnant (9 months ago) and am in a very stable, loving marriage and would be willing to give you a copy of my medical history. I do not use drugs or drink. I had trouble with supply with my first baby (now 2 1/2) so I know what you are going through. I live outside of Philadelphia pa. Please let me know if I can help!

Best,
Kara 215-313-7445

Vegan Mom in NoVA Seeking Breast Milk (DC/MD/PA/VA/WV)

Hi, I recently joined and am getting familiar with the forum...

About me: My milk supply is extremely low. I had no changes at my breasts during my pregnancy; but, otherwise had a healthy pregnancy. Being "into health", my low milk supply was quite a surprise to us. I have been working with a lactation consultant to get my supply up and my DH has been so supportive. I am currently reading Mother Food; an excellent book for breastfeeding mothers (listing lactogenic and anti-lactogenic foods and herbs). I hope to use donated breast milk until my supply meets demand. (I hope it works!)

I would prefer BM from a whole foods vegan/vegetarian or clean-meats/kosher omnivore. However, I am not sure I can be picky in the type of breast milk I receive since I do believe most BM is better than formula
