When my daughter was born, I was told by the lactation consultant that I 
could donate to a milk bank, since I produced so much.  I know that part of 
the requirement is documentation from the pediatrician stating that the baby

is growing propperly.
I don't know how it differs from state to state, but I have been told the 
milk bank helps premature babies or babies in the hospital.

While I was looking on the net to see if any regulations or methods
have changed concerning freezing/storing breastmilk, I came across a
site that asks mothers to donate their breastmilk to this science
group to help preemies  in the hospital.
OK, I don't even have the baby myself, but thought it was interesting.
But, do they really test, pastorize and  donate the milk to hospitals?
does anyone else know about it.
The website is www.milkinmamas.com
thanks for any information.
