>>>A mother to be
who had breast reduction in her teen years wants her friend who is
nursing a two year old to start pumping and freezing her milk in case
once the baby is born the mother to be is not able to fully breastfeed.>>>
My initial thought is that a newborn needs colostrum, and that milk from a
mom who is nursing a 2 year is different in compostion from that needed by a
newborn. I'm not saying to use formula but she might want to try to get milk
from a mother nursing a much younger baby or contact a milk bank.
