Does the region you live in have a breast milk bank?

Those are so expensive, it’s usually not feasible. I think ours was $4/oz three years ago. If a baby drinks 30oz a day, that’s $120/day. Would be like $3,600 a month. Plus, they prioritize premies first and regular babies get whatever is left over.

The same cost as daycare! So a month of feeding and care for a baby costs the same as a Hawaiian vacation for a week.
