Hi all,

One of my BSC students sent me a lesson in which she quoted the going price
of breastmilk from a milk bank as $2.50/ounce.  She then took the Wellstart
figure of needing 9,000+ ounces a year (which I think is LOW) and came up
with a yearly cost of EBM at $24,000.  Puts what we make with our bodies into
perspective, doesn't it???
