Brand new to donating...but would like to get started with one family!
Brand new to donating...but would like to get started with one family!
I am a student. I attend classes 3 days a week for 4hr sessions...so I am home with my children most of the time. I do not have a good breast pump (only a manual) and I honestly can not afford a hospital grade. However, I am going to contact WIC and see if it would be possible to get a good pump through them. If I am not able to...I will be happy to commit to donating to a family for an extented period of time, if they would be willing to cover the cost of a rented pump.
Remember, this will be my first time, and I do not currently have milk stored. I would probably be more likey matched with a women who is expecting and knows she wont be able to nurse...or with someone who has a large supply saved up and will not need more milk to some time.
If you have any tips or advice for me, that would be great! I'm a VERY excited to help someone out! If you are looking for milk and you are around the Lynchburg VA area, and are interested in knowing more about my family and I, please e-mail me at proud_breastfeeding_momma@yahoo.com
Thank you all for reading and thank all of you mothers who can't nurse but are still determined to give your baby what he deserves!
