BFing IE nesties
Hey there,
The post about what Matt suggested got me thinking about that People article a month or two ago. I'm not sure if it was about Matt, Liz and Madeline (it might have been), but a group of BFing women in town all got together and donated breast milk.
Unfortunately, I don't have enough left to pump and the BM in my freezer is probably out of code, but if any of you pumpin' mamas have any additional BM stashed, this would be such a gift to Gaby.
Anyway, just another idea to add to the long-list. Our thoughts are with the family today.
With a heavy heart,
Jen

After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
Here's an SAIF post on the topic!

Sher - here's a site with info about how to prepare milk to donate - http://www.hmbana.org/ A friend of mine donated to the Mother's Milk Bank in San Jose.
In this case, we won't be donated to a milk bank - but directly to a person. Regardless of who the mother is - breast milk is still best, even if little Gaby is only getting a small bit a day. Pumpin' mamas, if this works out, I am sure the family would be eternally grateful. I'll see if I can find the link to that People article.
I stopped lurking a while ago, but after seeing this mentioned on Lori's FB, I had to come over. I am in shock, and I am so, so sorry for everyone's loss.
I had started to pump to donate to another local baby, but they stopped communicating so I stopped pumping. At the time, I was able to pump an extra 10oz a day. If it would help, I'm more than willing to start pumping again.
