Hi
Does anyone know anything about milk banks at hospitals? I know our hospital has one which is great. I was hoping to harvest colostrum but my hospital don't want me to as it can bring on labour and baby is breech. I'm hoping that I won't need it and I'll be able to feed myself but if I can't for whatever reason is there any special criteria for getting milk bank milk? Or is it open to anyone who can't feed their babies themselves? Also, is milk bank milk better than the aptamil 1st milk? I'm wondering if it will be rich enough as it obviously won't be colostrum? Am I right to assume human milk will be better than formula no matter what?
Thanks in advance
