Donations Needed for 12 week old Jameson - 10-15 oz per day

Hi, are you still looking for milk? I have plenty of milk in the freezer and pump more each day than my son needs. Let me know and I'd be happy to talk to you!

Hi everyone!

I am posting as we are still searching for one time or ongoing donations for our now 12 week old baby boy.

I've posted before but for someone new who may not know me, I supplement at the breast with donor breast milk because of low supply. We're not sure why my supply is low this time as I had a normal, healthy, natural drug free home birth but alas it is!

Jameson was born at home on 9/25/10 after a gentle 12.5 hour labor, an amazing VBA2C. He started nursing within an hour after birth and my milk started coming in 24 hours or so later. However on day 5, he still had not gained (he'd stopped losing at least!) and was still passing uric acid in his diapers. We made the decision to supplement and further take care of his extensive tongue tie. He took nearly a month and 4 clips before his tongue was fully released and during that time, I pumped, did all the supplements, etc. and increased my supply. We were without supplement for a month however his weight gain just isn't up to par. While his output is normal and he does gain, he gains a low amount that we are not comfortable with. So we supplement day feeds... We are currently doing 1.25 oz per feeding and are slowly cutting it back as he gained 17 oz in 13 days on that, which was a bit excessive. We think we can probably do .5 to 3/4 oz and have him gain a healthy, normal weight. He was born at 8lbs 1 oz and at last check at 11 weeks, was 10 lbs 13.5 oz.

We are hoping to find a local donor or 2 who can provide Jameson with the 10-15 oz a day that he needs. I am happy to provide bottles to donating mama's and/or replace bags you've used. We will travel to pick up within MD/DC/VA and PA.

Thank you for considering us for your milk!
