[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Truly curious, who would buy breastmilk when there are milk banks/donation centers to get free breastmilk?
I guess perverted dudes with weird breast milk fetishes?[/quote]

You need a doctor's prescription to get officially donated milk. And it's not "free," it's charged through insurance.  Some people can't breastfeed but they don't qualify as a medical necessity, so they ask for informally donated milk or buy it right from a mom. Or some people adopt, ie wealthy gay couples, and want to buy milk. Sometimes a breastfeeding mom gets sick and needs to be on meds that isn't safe to breastfeeding.

If you really are interested in selling, look up Prolacta bioscience. Passing the blood tests and shipping on dry ice is a lot of work but they pay $1/oz so up to $70/day is serious to consider. There's also only the breast dot com but that's more like the craigs list route. Otherwise do formal donation through the Austin Milk Bank (dropoff in downtown DC) or Human Milk 4 Human Babies.[/quote]

+1 I struggled to produce milk, but my kid was thriving anyway so I never asked for milk donations. but i probably would have bought it if I saw that another mom I knew had too much.[/quote]
