I dont think I would accept it from a bank - but then becasue I've been able to feed, maybe I'm looking at it through rose coloured glasses?? I dont really like the idea of a wet-nurse either.
I would definitly donate, I'm big on blood donations etc, but in saying that, I have enough trouble getting through the day with a newborn - would I have time to muck around with expressing for someone else??
I think priorities would come into it a little. I certainly wouldn't be driving into the milk bank every couple of days, and I would want them to provide everything sterilised for me - maybe in plastic bags that I could rip open when required?
Liek the others have said - I would want the milk to go to the premmie babies too before others. Shane's SIL was expressing for about 6 weeks in hospital, it was really hard for her.
