Donating Milk?

Jannah

Anyone donate extra milk? Where did you find someone to donate to in your area?

I’m exclusively pumping for my NICU baby and I produce way more than she needs. It’s not really hard at this point. She gets about 15mL per feed because she only weighs a pound and a half. So it works out to four to five ounces a day. I’m producing around 28-30 oz a day. She will start to catch up to me as she gets bigger, but it’s going to take a while. I want to keep my supply up for when she’s much bigger and taking the typical 25 oz a day.

We bought a small deep freezer to freeze excess, but I’m worried that I might fill up the entire freezer before she comes home in January! I hate to waste the milk, so I’m considering donating it. I just don’t know where to start finding someone. And I’d need it to be really easy because I’m so busy with pumping and spending most of my time at the NICU.
