no, because I am a lactavist and i actually advocate for using donor breast milk over formula and will gladly donate my own if ever needed. I had a baby I wet nursed occasionally to give the comfort she needed and donated to her by bottle (until mom got her own donor milk from other donors) because mom wasn't making enough. Her mother asked first and so it was a mutual agreement. Fyi: I don't ever advertise this and would never do this unless asked first&was willing. We just happen to meet first through the LLL group and had very similar strong beliefs about this. She's now on formula and donor milk by bottle. I do allow formula to be brought from home though and currently have an infant who has always been on formula.
At a home daycare I used to work at, there where two moms who both had their second babies at the same time and I guess one of the moms couldn't produce enough milk. So the other mom donated some of her break milk and everyday would give the provider enough milk for both her baby and the other baby.
