"I truly recommend becoming a breast milk donor to all mothers. It is such a rewarding experience to know that you are helping give a baby the very best start in life."
"I viewed a pamphlet about Milk Matters one day and I thought to myself wow can people actually do something like that.
My daughter was eight months old, I was breastfeeding and I thought to myself I have more than enough milk for my daughter so I might as well spare some for those small little angels."
"I will do whatever I can to help save these little babies. I am glad to be able to donate my milk to them."
"Milk Matters is an amazing initiative that I am priviledged to have been involved in."
Returning to work is always a daunting thought, with finding a caregiver and how to continue feeding your baby usually being the most difficult choices to make. Here are some options:
Always keep in mind that your feeding option can be left until a few weeks before you go back to work. You could also start with option one and follow through to option four over a period of weeks or months once back at work.
Allow your baby's caregiver to spend plenty of time with your baby before you return and ensure that she fully understands how you want to continue feeding your baby.
