    No one but a pervert will buy your breastmilk.  Now if you wanna donate it, there are several women on here that do that.  Hopefully someone will respond.

    It's illegal in some states. From the posts I've read on here, if you advertise your milk online, you mostly get inquiries from creepy men with breastmilk fetishes. You can donate your milk to a regulated milk bank or through Human Milk 4 Human Babies (not regulated).

    There was just a woman on one of the morning shows who make like 40K selling her breastmilk, so it clearly is possible. No good resources for it online though.

    honestly, I'm so ready to be done pumping I dont think 40K could get me to keep it up for another year...

    I wasn't trying to advertise my milk, I  just saw the morning show last week, and wanted to know if any bumpies actually did it.

    That's actually not true.  There are places to buy and sell milk.  It goes for about $3.50/ounce.  The issue is that most of them have more milk than they can sell and are not looking for additional sellers.  So, you would be on your own to find a buyer.

    To the OP, I don't recommend selling or donating your milk until you are ABSOLUTELY sure you are going to produce enough for the long haul.  At first, I had a ton of extra milk in the freezer.  But, by the time DD was 6 months old, making her bottles each day was a total struggle.

    I considered it and it's NOT illegal in most places.  It is in some, but not all.

    And yes, people besides perverts do buy it.  (I considered it not caring if it went to someone creepy.  I did eventually decide to donate instead but I don't fault someone for considering selling)

    This is the site I looked at:
