Getting you started with the breast milk donation process


Preparing and shipping donated breastmilk samples
We provide two breastmilk storage bags one labeled “Left Breast” and one labeled “Right Breast” these are for the main milk samples, please try and provide 75 ml (2.5 ounces) of milk from each breast. We need you to ship out the samples Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday so that they don’t get stuck in the system for a weekend. There is a second set of breastmilk storage bags in the package. If you can, please provide additional samples and FREEZE THESE A DAY OR SO BEFORE the FedEx mailing (we can use the frozen samples for some research and they provide extra cooling).On the morning of the day you ship your donated milk to the Arcaro lab:
