[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you tried donor milk?  In my area there is a good milk bank that has very strict criteria for donors and does some kind of ?Pasteurization process on the milk so it is very safe.  (I think they actually ship around the country so I'll provide the link - but obviously local can be easier - https://mothersmilk.org/ They will provide the first 40oz without a prescription - but after that you need a prescription.  The coordinator is very helpful if you have questions :) )   
It is expensive but sometimes you can get insurance to cover. 
Maybe your baby will take that if you haven't been successful with formulas.   (I'm assuming you would be more comfortable with strictly controlled donor milk than peer-to-peer sharing - but that is obviously also an option.) [/quote]

Peer to peer donor milk? There was a Netflix documentary that tested the donor milk available in those groups. Some of it was no better than sewer water. You have zero idea how that milk was handled or stored, or what diseases the donor may have or their partner may have and passed on to the donor without her knowing (spent any time in the Relationships sub-forum? Lots of cheating men out there). There is ZERO reason to resort to this when safe alternatives are available. [/quote]
