NYMB Donor Experience
Hear from New York Milk Bank donor April about her experience donating, breastfeeding, and motherhood. If you would like to share your story about donating or receiving milk from NYMB,
The COVID-19 Mother's Study is looking for mothers and infants who have been affected by COVID to see how maternity practices impacted moms, newborns and older infants. If you or your baby had COVID-19, we want to hear about your experiences, take the 8-minute survey!
Women who have tested positive for COVID-19, are presumptive positive, have not been tested but are symptomatic or have confirmed exposure but are asymptomatic and who are breastfeeding will qualify for enrollment into the breastmilk study.
This study will consist of a telephone interview and up to 5 at home breast milk sample collections over the course of their illness (frozen milk from the time of illness is accepted too). We will also collect medical records related to the infant’s growth, and collect maternally reported developmental questionnaire data up to 2 years of age.
