Alicia Richman Wins Guinness World Record for 'Most Breast milk Donated'
How much breast milk does one have to donate to set a world record? Texas woman Alicia Richman and Guinness World Records have determined the number. According to Dallas-Fort Worth’s FOX affiliate Richman amassed 11,115 ounces — approximately 86 gallons — of breast milk over a nine month period. Richman would feed her young son, Drake, and then set aside a little extra for donation each time. All of her donations went to the Mother’s Milk Bank of North Texas, a resource for neonatal care and mothers who can’t provide their own breast milk. The Mother’s Milk Bank of North Texas claims that one ounce of donations can provide three feedings for a premie baby.
