My baby is 7 weeks old and I have oversupply/fast letdown. I did try block feeding for a while, which seemed to help a little, but I have had mastitis twice, at 7 days and 3 weeks and am reluctant to block feed again in case I get mastitis again. It is causing us some problems and I wondered if it will rectify itself as BF becomes more established?
Also, I am very interested in donating milk. We move to Edinburgh later this month and the nearest milk bank is Glasgow. I have spoken to them and would need to drive the milk there myself, which I don't mind doing, but is donating via the milk bank the only option or do some hospitals accept it direct?
