WeĄ¯re under the HMBANA umbrella. IĄ¯d like to add a couple of tweaks - we donĄ¯t defer milk for ALL medications. We have a pretty good list of common medications approved for use in donors that has been put together (and regularly reviewed) by a distinguished committee that includes neonatologists, pharmacists and other practitioners. >> >> Fenugreek impacts blood sugar levels, which preemies often have trouble regulating. I agree with you about moms taking galactagogues prophylactically - itĄ¯s heartbreaking when they call and theyĄ¯ve been taking one capsule of fenugreek or cup of lactation tea every couple of days. It isnĄ¯t even close to a therapeutic dose in terms of impacting her supply, but we still canĄ¯t take it. >> >> With regard to bereaved moms, I believe each bank makes its own decision about how to handle milk that canĄ¯t be processed. Folks doing research with breastmilk arenĄ¯t readily available at every location, and/or arenĄ¯t always in a position to receive more. >> >> Morgan Kennedy Henderson, IBCLC >> Donor Intake Coordinator >> MothersĄ¯ Milk Bank Northeast >> >>> *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
