Question

Angel was born spontaneously after 4 weeks of gestation while her mother was hospitalized with an infection. At birth, angel was 600g. she was fed donor milk until her mother was well enough to begin pumping milk.

Answer 1

Ans) Donated breast milk is very safe; it comes from mothers that have pumped more milk than their own baby can eat. Each container of milk is also tested for harmful bacteria. The donor milk is then pasteurized to eliminate any infecting organism that could be present in the milk.

It's completely OK and perfectly safe to do, and many families choose this type of combination feeding method, whether out of necessity ( e.g.,low breast milk supply ), convenience, or simply a personal choice in some cases, breastfeeding and providing formula may be recommended by a doctor for medical reasons.
