I didn't know she was lactating.

 

[Freyja]

She is still nursing her own baby.

She is still nursing her own baby.

That makes sense. Obviously. I didn't know that.

I can't even imagine breastfeeding a baby that's not my own.

It's great, but I couldn't do it. I'd pump the milk for the baby, but I couldn't nurse it.

Thats how I feel.

I can't imagine allowing a family member to breastfeed my baby. Having a stranger do wouldn’t be an option.

If they want to promote breastfeeding, why not do a piece with her feeding her own child?

I didn't see what the point was.
The cost of her plane ride could have fed thousands....

This made me cry! What an incredible person Selma is! I can honestly say I would absolutely have done the same thing. No need for a pump -- these babies need human contact as well as nourishment. This was such a great thing to see this morning. Thanks for posting!

I find it ironic that most of us will readily drink the milk of a cow-milk that was never meant for humans, but get queasy at the idea of one human feeding another human her milk.

I'm queasy about a STRANGER feeding a random child her milk. I don't like using the child to promote her cause.

Cow milk is processed and pasteurized and presumably tested. It's not the same thing at all IMO.

 

[princess momma]

I just found nursing my baby extremely intimate. It's not something I could do for a stranger. I'd have no problem giving away the milk, but I don't think this was about nourishing this baby.

This was to make a statement.

There are a lot of hungry babies in the world, and donating formula(which she could afford to do) would be more helpful than breastfeeding one baby.

I know, but I can't help it. I breastfed all my kids, but the whole wet nurse idea creeps me out. I realize it shouldn't, but it does.
