Have you considered formula?
You can get the milk tested by bringing it to a lab! But I’ve donated in meets on feet’s and human milk 4 human babies
@Sabrena I’m in Oklahoma. I’ll try a local Facebook page
@Misty that makes sense. Thank you for the input
My lactation consulted did not recommend buying it from people because they could be filling them up with cows milk or goats milk to make a profit. There’s no guarantee of what you’re getting. Getting donations is different though.
What is your location ? You should look into human milk groups in your area I am in the one in California it’s been such a help for me I’m struggling my self barely make 2oz a day I had two mommas help me but unfortunately it isn’t enough so I have to split it up with that and formula
There should be a breast milk page on Facebook u can join in ur area or state they should have a rule for ppl who are selling breast milk tell their diet any vaccinations they've had what medications they're taking and if they're consuming alcohol/drugs/tobacco. It's up to u mom if u want to do it a lot of ppl buy breast milk for their babies. Haven't had the experience so i couldn't tell u if it's worth it or not
Where are you based?
No. Don't buy it, formula is great nowadays and your baby has already gotten the best benefits if it from you. I've seen quite a few articles where they e tested donated milk and it's been mixed with regular milk, water, or who knows what. Also, you don't know if the person pumping properly sanitizes anything or if they have any communicable diseases. Unless it's from a proper milk bank, I wouldn't purchase it or accept it. You've done your best, now it's time to rest and start formula feeding.
