Breast milk is a precious resource that can save and improve the lives of vulnerable infants. For mothers who have extra milk, donating can be a meaningful way to help babies in need. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about donating breast milk safely and responsibly.

Breast milk is a valuable source of nutrition for babies, and it is important to store it properly to preserve its nutrients and prevent contamination. Here are some general guidelines for storing breast milk:

• Always wash your hands before pumping or handling storage containers.

• Use clean, sterile storage containers. You can use plastic bottles, glass bottles, or breast milk storage bags from Anue.
  Make sure the containers are BPA-free.

• Label each container with the date and time the milk was pumped.

In Norway, hospitals prioritize the use of raw (unpasteurized) donor milk for premature and vulnerable infants. While many countries rely on pasteurized donor milk to eliminate potential pathogens, Norway has taken a different approach, emphasizing the preservation of breast milk’s natural properties.
