Re: 3 Time Donor in Hyde Park Chicago will be ready to donate again in late May
If you have not already found a family, I would be very interested in speaking with you. I am due June 22nd, and due to IGT never made more than a 1/3 of my daughter's need. I am doing all I can during this pregnancy to try increase my chances of a better supply, but I am also trying to be realistic. I was so fortunate with my daughter to find amazing mums who helped me keep my daughter on breast milk for a year until her solid food intake increased, and by then my little supply was enough to keep our nursing relationship until she was over two years old. Although I am hope for a ful supply, I hope I will find such amazing women again if I need. I live in Oak Park. So pick-up would not be a problem.
Thank you,
Jennifer

3 Time Donor in Hyde Park Chicago will be ready to donate again in late May
Milkshare has helped me connect with three families in the past while I was nursing my older two sons. Now I have another son due May 22, and I am looking once again to donate. I feel very strongly about donating and have LOVED meeting and helping other families through this forum. I have always overproduced. My first son was 30lbs at a year--he tried his best to keep up. Second kid I started donating right away, and that's what I'm looking to do this time.
I just got a new pump. In the past I have had donors give a box of medela storage bags every time they pick up. This time, however, I'm looking at a freezer now feeding four and wondering where I'll put it all. I will need more frequent pickups, or for someone willing to temporarily park a deep freezer in my basement here. Either way is fine with me, I just need to deal with the very limited storage issue up front.
Thanks and email with questions,
Stacy
