Jenn connel ,of wilton,n.h.,firmly beleives in breast feeding,but three years ago she had to have a double mastectomy,she is a 34 yrold cancer survivor.in 2003 she started a web site(www.feedmybaby.com )she asked other women around the country for help.after filling out health questionaires,dosens of lactating mothers have overnighted breast milk packed in dry ice,which connel then fed her sons in bottles.
Pediatricians and health experts are suffiently concerned to warn those involved that the potential risks of using milk from an unknown source far out wiegh any benefits.Studies have shown that a mothers milk can carry diseases as serious as hepatitis and hiv,and both the american academy of pediatricss and laleche league,warn agaisnt casual sharing of breast milk.
I personally think this is not very safe,i know that breast milk gives the babies the best nutrtion and builds their imun systems but i dont think id want my kids drinking someother womens breast milk,
What do you guys think?
