Baby-Led Weaning with Katie Ferraro

Milk Banks and Moms: How Your Extra Breastmilk Can Save Lives with @ucmilkbank Alison Wolf, CPNP, IBCLC


Listen Later

#470: Your baby starts drinking less breastmilk when they start solid foods…but your breastmilk can help other families beyond your own baby. Alison Wolf, Executive Director of the University of California Milk Bank explains how donating human milk works, who it benefits, why it’s safe and perhaps possibly something you could consider doing.


Listen to this episode to learn:
  1. How just one bag of your pumped breastmilk (4-6 oz) can feed a premature baby for a whole day
  2. Why donor milk is essential for premature babies in preventing NEC - a devastating bowel disease
  3. What you can do if you want to become a breastmilk donor…even if you don’t live near a milk bank

  4. Shownotes for this episode can be found here:
