I'm pretty sure I still have more than enough milk for my DD who is about 7 weeks old.  I had tons last time too. What should I do to find out about donating milk?  Any links?

I feel like I'm learning for 1st time since DS & I struggled so much 3 yrs ago.  So if/when do babies start nursing/emptying faster. I feel like she was taking longer & she's 4 weeks now.  We were doing 10-15 min on...
