Seeking milk for newborn
Re: Seeking milk for newborn
I am in the Attleboro area & would be willing to donate. I have A LOT of frozen BM in my freezer dating from July when my son was born. I have quite an over supply. I also could get a letter from my doctor regarding my health. I do have Type II Diabetes & hbp, but both are well controlled & the meds that I am on do not affect the baby as I am still nursing my 3 month old son.
Please let me know ASAP, as I do see there are others in need as well.
Thanks,
Heidi

I am in the foxboro area and I have extra milk. I could also ask my doctor for some sort of medical statement to tell you I am in good health. Let me know if you are interested.

I sent you a PM 3 days ago but I'm not sure if you know since it has not been checked, it's still sitting in my outbox. I can't help you get milk, but I did want to invite you to a Facebook group for women with IGT. It is a private group, but a great wealth of support. It has really been hopping with a lot of new members.

Seeking milk for newborn
I'm new to this board. I was just diagnosed with hypoplastic breasts and learned cannot feed my daughter, who is 13 days old today. I am only able to produce about 1/2 an ounce a day, with feeding and pumping multiple times in 24 hours. As far as we know, our daughter doesn't have any dairy allergies or nut allergies. The lactation consultants (3) have told me that I will definitely need to supplement.
I'm not sure how to make sure that the donor milk is from a healthy, disease and drug free mom. Can I ask the donor to provide medical clearance? I'd really appreciate any milk and/or advice. We live just outside of Boston, MA.
Thank you for reading this, and in advance for any help/advice you have.
Best,
Stacie
