Milk Needed--Western Mass, Eastern NY
I'm a mother with insufficient glandular tissue trying to feed a 7 week old boy. We discovered the sad state of my breasts in his first week of life, when he lost over 13% of his body weight, despite nursing constantly. I only produce 4-5 oz of milk per day, after supplementing with hundreds of dollars of herbs and pumping around 4 hours a day.
I had been dedicated to breastfeeding my son up to 2 years, as my sisters and I had been, until this happened. Now, I'm supplementing with a formula that is not so good on his gut, and I'm not so positive is really food after reading the ingredients. I would love any amount of help that anyone would be able to give me.
I'm actually in NY, but I'm a UMass Amherst doctoral student. I travel in Massachusetts for research all of the time, and will be resuming this soon. So, I'd be willing to come pick up any supply, and certainly willing to pay for shipping, supplies, and whatnot.
Thanks for considering it,
Rachael Lawrence
