Fecal Transplant - Questions about donor...

I tried doing a FT a few years ago, using my toddler son as a donor.  Nothing really changed for me one way or another.

I remember reading then that using a breastfed baby would be the best donor.  Now, I can't seem to find that information.  I look at the members of my immediate family, and honestly, none of them has the "perfect" bowel habits.  I don't know if I have the guts to ask  (no pun intended) anyone else, but I do have several friends with babes at the moment, and I am wondering if it's worth it to ask one of them (if I can get the nerve up to ask someone for some poop...)

For anyone who has done this, who did you ask and how did you approach it?

Does anyone think a baby would be best or should it be an adult?  Or does it matter?  (as long as the person is healthy?)

Thanks for any input!

i'd be happy to ask for you

i'm really brave when it comes to asking a stranger for their poop if it's for someone elses butt -

A board member at the time had done a successful FT with her breastfed grandchild and the theory started from there. As per Dr Borody, it should be an adult (doesn't say unrelated but some FT drs do apparently). Children do not have a "complete" gut flora until they're about 2 years old. I've heard of people using friends. I guess the question is how many you intend to do. Some only need a few but others need a few months of daily transplants.
