Interested in receiving milk
I have been receiving donor milk from a milk bank in San Jose, CA for our little one in Portland, OR, who was born 5 weeks early.
We have already spent close to $1000 out of pocket for less than one month's supply of donor breast milk - if you have a cheaper alternative, please let me know!
Thank you very much!

NY Mom Looking to Donate 350 oz. of Frozen Milk
Here is a little information about me and my little one:
-First and most importantly, I am disease free. I had all the required testing for transmittable diseases when I was pregnant and delivering my little one, so clearly I do not have any infectious diseases that would hurt my own child or yours. I am happy to provide medical documentation of this.
-I live a healthy lifestyle, I eat a balanced and healthy diet and I *try* to exercise 3 times per week (not the easiest thing to do with a newborn). I do not drink soda, coffee or any other caffeine products. I do eat dairy occasionally approximately 1 cup of milk with my oatmeal daily and the occasional slice of cheese on a sandwich. I do not eat foods that generally upset my baby's stomach like garlic, chocolate or spicy foods.
-I take Rainbow Light prenatal vitamins daily.
- I pump with a hospital grade Medela Lactina pump which I sterilize after each pumping session along with all the bottles and other equipment.
- I pour the EBM into Lansinoh bags and place them directly into my freezer. Each bag is labeled with the date and amount pumped.
- I do not smoke, I do not drink alcohol and I have never taken drugs. I do not take any medications, not even OTC painkillers.
- My daughter is currently in the 80th percentile for both height and weight and has been thriving on breast milk. Keep in mind that I am breast feeding my own child so clearly I take care of my body in order to ensure that my daughter is getting the best possible breast milk.
If you are interested, please feel free to contact me and I will give you a shipping quote. The milk will be packed in a cooler with a dry ice to ensure it's safe arrival.
I have donated to two families over the past few months and I would love to continue giving this gift.
