Hello,
I am a nursing mom to a six Month old. I would like to donate milk to a baby. Can someone tell me what the best way to get started is? I own a Brest pump but have not been pumping so far. Do I need any kind of medical form before starting? Or only if requested? Is it reasonable to ask for a picture of the child I am donation to? Just for myself, I would like to have a picture of the baby/babies I donate to. Is their anything else I need to know?
Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for considering being a donor. To get started all you need to do is post that you have milk available or respond to a request for milk. You do not need any medical forms unless a recipient requests them, not all do. You should probably be prepared to answer some questions about your medical history and your lifestyle at the very least. It is absolutely reasonable to ask for a picture of the baby you are donating to. As a recipient myself I do my best to send e-mail updates and new photos to the donors who seem interested in this kind of thing. Really as a donor the "power" is in your hands. Most recipient moms are willing to meet any reasonable requests, and if they don't meet your requests then you don't have to donate to them. Good luck finding a family that meets your needs as a donor and thank you again!
