The Milk Bank needs over 62,000 ounces of milk each month to meet the needs of Indiana babies, along with a few neighboring states that also use the milk for babies in need.
INDIANAPOLIS — One local mom is highlighting the importance of breast milk donations — a needed nutrition for babies who are born premature.
Troyer’s daughter was born premature at 28 weeks. At the time, she wasn’t sure if she would be able to produce enough milk to keep her daughter healthy. “It was very much a wake-up call about how many people go through this and how stressful it can be,” Troyer said. NEC stands for Necrotizing Enterocolitis, a common disease of the intestinal tract that premature babies are susceptible to.
“It takes over 1,000 new milk donors every year, which is a lot of moms helping other moms,” Lucas said.
