The other day I noticed someone referring to 'pooled donor milk' being used .... Is this common practice?  I know that at our hospital, every effort is made
to supply a baby with milk from as few donors as possible, preferably only one, and close track is kept of who gets whose milk - .... It is documented in the patient record for every feed.
I'll be interested to learn more about how donor milk is dispensed in various places.

Hi Rachel,
    You can find this information in back issues of the Journal of Human Lactation (JHL), in the regular article on human milk banking.  Do you have access to JHL?
