There is room for the hard part
A diagnosis, a procedure, a NICU stay, a difficult recovery, or a supply challenge can change the plan quickly. None of it changes how deeply you are showing up for your baby.

Support for the feeding journey you did not choose.
you expected breastfeeding to be straightforward
Your feeding story looks different.
Your care for your baby does not.
You are not alone in this
Families reach this moment through many paths: cancer treatment, breast surgery, medical conditions, medications, premature delivery, infertility, and more. There is no one right feeding journey.
Support can still be practical
Leche is shelf-stable donor breast milk in single-serve sachetsβdesigned to make an additional feeding option easier to keep on hand, use, and discuss with your babyβs care team.
MANY STORIES, ONE HOPE
Why some families seek donor milk
There is no single reason to look for an additional feeding option.
Cancer survivors + oncology patients
Treatment and recovery can reshape feeding plans. Families may look for compassionate, practical options while they focus on care.
NICU graduates + premature babies
The transition home after a complex start can come with many feeding questions. Your babyβs care team can help guide what is appropriate.
Surgical histories + low supply
Past breast surgery, a mastectomy, IGT, and other physical realities can affect lactation. Those realities are not a measure of your commitment as a parent.
Medical conditions + medications
Medical conditions and necessary medications can influence a feeding plan. Speak with your clinician about your specific situation and timing.
