As a result, breast milk donation in Indonesia can be done by fulfilling several conditions: first, the request of the biological mother or the baby’s family. Second, the identity, religion, and address of the breast milk donor are clearly known by the mother or family of the baby receiving the donor. Third, the approval of the breast milk donor by knowing the identity of the donor recipient baby. Fourth, the breast milk donor is in good health and has no medical indication. Fifth, breast milk is not traded.
