Sorry if i got it wrong, i didnt realise you all were referring to EBM from dead mother. Still though, would the body still allow for the let down. I suppose though if its just for the collustrum then she wouldnt get a let down, horrible topic this.

I dont think that this subject has anything to do really with FFng bubs. The question is 'would you use a milk bank', so forgive me for my ignorance but thats breast milk. I dont understand why the FFng parents are thinking that this topic is haveing a go at them for their decision. Which in fact is THEIR decision. So can we move on and stop agrueing about formula versus breastmilk. Please.

Ive noticed the worry of what goes into the breastmilk ie smoking mum, drugs etc but what about the day to day things your feeding your kids now. What about the additives that are in the food that are far more harmful than a mother that smokes or takes drugs. The whole idea of the breast bank is to give the premmie bubs a head start in life and im sure the screening would be there anyway like FJ has already shown just like with blood its screened. So that isnt really an issue.

I agree that dads can also feed there kids BM from the mum expressing, i know lots of mums that do that to give themselves a break as well as encouraging the bond between bub and dad. Its nice to see a fathers point of view put in here.

Im finished now.
