Texas breast-milk bank one of few in the US

FORT WORTH, Texas - Each day brings excitement for Jennifer Kittinger, who watches in amazement at how strong little Abby is getting at Cook Children's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Abby was born two months early and came in weighing two pounds, and that led to problems with Jennifer producing enough milk to breast feed.

"It's so important," Kittinger said. "The best thing you can do for a premature baby, like Abagail, is provide breast milk."

So, she's grateful moms like her can turn to The Mothers' Milk Bank of North Texas (MMBNT), which collects breast milk from donors.
