In need of milk. It's the only thing that stops my daughters vomiting.
I am in search of milk for my daughter (southeast Michigan) She has had a digestion problem Where she would vomit at least 4 times a week, sometimes 2 or 3 times in a day, no matter what I did or didn't give her. The doctor could shed no light whatsoever just maybe she'll 'grow out of it'. So I decided to try breast milk. She had been on mixed formula & breast milk since 6 months and full formula since 9months. I was unable to breastfeed after a very traumatic birth. My daughter and I were separated for the first few days after she was born because I was unconscious and although she latched right on In the first hour or so after birth, after I took a violent turn for the worse it never happened again. After I began getting better and she and I were reunited she turned away from my breast. It was extremely discouraging and had I known then what I know now I would have found a great lactation consultant but I had no idea there was any such thing! Although tragic that i cannot provide for her myself, I have been determined to get her what she needs elsewhere. After switching to only breast milk the difference has been unbelievable. She went for 2 weeks without throwing up one time! Then I ran out because I couldn't find another donor. She started vomiting again. Almost immediately. Once back on breast milk she stopped again. I have an awesome donor but unfortunately she can't keep up with increased demands. We use anywhere from 16-28oz every 24 hours. If you have an older baby/toddler with extra milk you would be willing to donate please message me! I am willing to drive almost anywhere for a good amount of milk!
If you are interested in donating your milk I would love to hear more about you. I'm interested in any kind of donation either a one time large amount or an ongoing relationship. I would of course provide you with storage bags and reimburse any shipping cost (or any health screenings should you need any) if we were go into an ongoing relationship.
Thank you for your time, and please let me know if you are interested in donating. My daughter really is doing so much better with the help of such willing Donors. I so enjoy getting to know you all. You're such generous women, even if I don't end up being your recipient, I want you to know how truly appreciated you are. Donating milk is such an amazing thing, I am so glad that you are able to. Thanks so much!
