In 2004, Baby MR was born at 31 weeks and remained in hospital for a further 4 weeks.
From the very first day his mother, a medical doctor, expressed milk every 3 hours, day and night, to ensure she built up a good supply.
Baby MR’s mum was able to nourish him with her own breastmilk and once he was home and feeding had been well established, she expressed milk in the morning for donation. By the time Baby MR was 4 months old, his mum was a regular donor.
