Does anyone in the US, working in a hospital, teach prenatal expression
of colostrum? If so do you have a policy or protocols you could share?
We are trying to implement this in our WIC program for those mothers
with GDM. We have written a policy and procedures using current milk
storage recommendations. The hospital where they will deliver has
liability concerns that they have no control over how the milk has been
expressed or stored at home. Would love to know if anyone else is doing
something similar/
