Welcome. Milkshare is a parent-to-parent connection tool for those seeking milk and donating milk. For more information, visit www.milkshare.com. We hope that all of your needs will be met here!

MilkShare works hard to serve you, therefore we ask that parents SEEKING milk please help to support

We have a few firm guidelines here at MilkShare, so please take note:

1. Absolutely NO selling of breastmilk or adult fettish requests permitted- report violations using the link at the bottom of page.
2. Donors should be refunded the cost of basic supplies. Recipients should pay for shipping costs in advance.
Please make these arrangements in advance and clearly communicate the expectations of both parties.
3. Most important: share milk responsibly and take steps to protect recipient children from diseases that are transmittable
through breastmilk. Helpful information is available on our website.

I am new to MilkShare and want to donate a lot of frozen milk I have saved up and would continue to donate also. How do you get started? Do I just post that I have milk available and wait for someone to answer? Is there a "correct" way to set up a relationship with a recipient? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

The first time I donated I just set up an ad under my state. The second time I responded to an ad. Both times we emailed back and forth a few times to get to know each other. Both times they came to my place and brought their baby so I knew they had one (a pic with them in it would have been enough for me). I don't produce enough to be able to be a regular donor to anyone, but they were happy for a one-time donation. If I were you I would try to get a copy of any medical records they may ask for. The second time they wanted my most recent "exam" to prove I didn't have HIV/AIDS or anything crazy. While you can't prove you are clean from everything, it helps give them piece of mind.
If you want them to reimburse/replace bags makes sure you mention that when emailing back and forth. Moms are more than happy to replace bags for you.
Good luck, and thanks for donating.
