Breast Milk and Donor Screening

The health and safety of babies is a top priority for every parent. We understand that when it comes to breast milk sharing, questions about screening, medical history, and overall safety are important.

Our platform is designed as a connection point between independent buyers and sellers. We do not collect, test, screen, verify, or medically evaluate breast milk donors. We are not a medical provider, milk bank, or healthcare facility. All transactions and agreements occur directly between members.

How Screening Works on Our Platform

Because of privacy laws and medical confidentiality regulations, we do not require or verify medical documentation from sellers. Instead, we encourage open communication between buyers and sellers so that both parties can make informed decisions.

Buyers are encouraged to:

  • Ask detailed health and lifestyle questions
  • Discuss diet, medications, and supplements
  • Request information about collection and storage practices
  • Communicate directly before agreeing to purchase

Sellers are encouraged to:

  • Be transparent about their health and lifestyle
  • Share collection and storage practices
  • Answer questions honestly and thoroughly
  • Communicate clearly about shipping and handling

We believe informed communication builds trust. Most parents using this platform are committed, caring individuals who understand the responsibility involved in sharing breast milk.

Understanding the Difference Between a Milk Bank and a Marketplace

Certified milk banks operate under strict medical screening, laboratory testing, and pasteurization protocols. Our platform does not replace or replicate those services. Instead, we provide a community-based marketplace where individuals connect privately.

Parents seeking medically screened and pasteurized donor milk should consider working directly with a licensed milk bank or healthcare provider.

Making an Informed Decision

Breast milk sharing is a personal decision. Each family has unique needs, and each transaction should be approached thoughtfully.

We recommend that members:

  • Take time to communicate before purchasing
  • Ask questions that matter to your family
  • Review proper handling and storage practices
  • Consult a pediatrician if you have concerns

Our goal is to provide a secure space where moms can connect, support one another, and make informed choices that feel right for their families.
