I have been a continuous donor first informally and then to Mother's Milk Bank in San Jose California. I sent them over a thousand ounces of milk and then they told me that the lab test that they did on the milk indicated that it was "contaminated" with bacillus- a bacteria that can't be "pasteurized out" (lacto bacillus is considered to be a GOOD bacteria by the way). I know my milk is in fact still good to drink though because my baby is thriving and beautiful and the first woman's baby whom I donated to is also thriving and had no problems with my milk. Thus I am very frustrated and saddened by my experiences with the milk bank. I am still amazed at how wasteful they have been. I understand my milk could possibly not be adequate for immuno-compromised or premature babies, but for a healthy baby I am sure it is fine. Thus if you are interested in milk that can't be certified "sterile" but is otherwise good, let me know. I'm going to try to get my blood test records from the milk bank. Hopefully they can at least do that for me.

My baby was born 1/22/10 and so just turned 6 months. I produce somewhere between 15-20 extra ounces a day. I would prefer not to ship, but it all depends on how many prospective recipients I hear from.
