@@PrismaticPixie You assume that donated milk is 'properly' tested (more likely, but no guarantees).

Milk from a milk bank is extremely heavily regulated and held to very high standards. It'd be like getting a bloodborne illness from donated blood. Sure, it can happen, but the chances are extremely low because people know the risks and take every possible precaution. Strangers on the Internet, as far as anybody knows, aren't taking any precautions whatsoever.

@cassandrahepp6445

8 ай бұрын

@not_ringo it can be. When you over produce, you can become engorged quickly. Engorgment isn't comfortable. You end up so full of milk your breasts become hard, and you have to pump or nurse to relieve the pressure. And you can always end up with clogged milk ducts or even mastitis. It can also affect nursing. If you're too engorged, it is hard for the baby to latch, but that isn't the only problem. Your baby needs a balance of fore milk and hind milk. Fore milk has a higher water and sugar content, while hind milk has more fat and protein. When you over produce and try to nurse your baby gets to much fore milk and not enough hind milk. To counteract this I only nursed on one side while i pumped on the other for relief. If I was really engorged I would pump off some before I'd nurse. I didn't produce nearly as much as the woman in the video. I imagine she couldn't nurse at all and likely had to pump and then give her baby a bottle of her breastmilk.

@cassandrahepp6445

8 ай бұрын

@Voyager5171 I never sold mine, though I did give some away. It was a lot of work to get my supply regulated but now I only produce what my little one needs. I know overproduction sounds like a blessing, and in some ways, it is, but it also creates some issues no one thinks about. In the video, she mentions foremilk and hindmilk. Foremilk has more water and sugar in it, and hindmilk has more protein and fats. Both are very important. When you over produce, your baby will get more foremilk and less hindmilk if you nurse. There are things that can be done (like pumping a little before nursing so the baby gets both), but considering how much this woman produced, I imagine she couldn't actually breastfeed her own baby. She likely had to give her baby her pumped milk in a bottle instead. There is nothing wrong with that, but I personally would have been heartbroken if I had lost out on that experience with my little one.

So my grand father gave her farm land , money and all out of respect. She used to come and visit my father from that village once in a while as we lived in a district which is like 4 hours or more journey for her once in a while and my dad used to give her some money to her and her daughter also who used to visit calling my dad a brother.

She's definitely an angel. Not sure if she's been tested for a pituitary tumor, which can cause excess prolactin. There's medications to lower prolactin. There's also surgical removal of the tumor. I hope she sees this and gets help.

Besides which not everything is caused by tumours, as she had pointed out at the start, what she has is very very rare and any Dr worth his weight in salt would have checked for tumours. By referring to tumours you cast such a negative view on what she has spent the last 15 years of her life doing for all the right reasons. She would have been given those options at the very beginning but what she saw was not something to be down or negative about but as something that could be used to help so many other people out there. I am just glad she had more positive people around her to help her and she in turn has worked with companies that have designed the very pumps that many working Moms of today are actually using to express the milk for their own children so that they are being fed using he own breast milk. She has looked at the medication which has far too many side affects that can and could cause her medical issues if taken. She has looked at the double mastectomy and at this time in her life she’s not interested, especially if she has not fully committed to not having more children in the near future. For now she feels that this is something that needs to be seen so that others who can help with Brest milk are made aware of their options. For so many decades wet-nurses have been looked down at because pre-WWII they were used by the very rich, and the very poor found it as a way to feed their families. A woman can Brest feed a child from birth up-to the age of 3 years of age. Because of this they became in high demand by the rich as long as they were healthy. Wet nurses are still needed today, there are so many women who are not able to produce enough of their own breast milk for their child, plus the many premi-babies that are born today is higher now than it was 30-40 years ago plus more if these babies are now living, but because if the distress of having their babies delivered early can cause the mothers milk to never come in at all.

Jeebus, this is FULL time job. I fully understand how it is viewed as a disability. I can't believe how much milk this brave and amazing woman produces. She must be incredibly strong mentally. My heart and prayers go to her and her family. Although she's doing a great service, I hope something can someday be done to free her from this. Amazing story❤.

What a remarkable woman! I cannot imagine how difficult this condition must be to live with but she uses her difficult circumstance to literally save lives! Such a great example of selflessness in a selfish world

It’s amazing that she donates her milk! I’m exclusively pumping milk for my 4th baby and it is no picnic. I can’t imagine doing it for years. 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾

Nestle is SHAKING right now

I hope the parents who receive her milk return the favor as much as possible. They could help package milk, deliver it, babysit her kids, go shopping for her, and a million other small things to make her life easier. She is wonderful for continuing to feed so many babies even though it makes her life much harder. :)

A lot of the parents receiving the milk at the time are in hospital with their babies, but yes certainly after their babies have recovered 😊 My bubba was born 10 weeks premature and was really sick in hospital for 6 weeks. I actually had a surplus of milk at the time because he couldn’t feed, which isn’t usual for a mum with a very early preterm baby, so I offered to donate a portion of my milk to the hospital for other mums but couldn’t because of the medication that I’m on 😢 Regardless, I’m sure those parents are incredibly grateful for this lady helping their babies to survive ❤

They usually can't... All the families I donated to were in crisis mode. Sometimes it's financially, others are straggling medically, or even just too exhausted after working 3 jobs 4wks postpartum..... I never ask anything from these families. Just knowing I can lift some of that burden by helping nurture their little one is enough. A less stressed mom is a better one! It's an amazing process! Some mom's choose to sell their breastmilk, as many companies buy it to research it's properties (usually formula companies), but it has far more value to a family who is struggling, even if nothing is exchanged financially.

You should definitely be paid big for this priceless gift!

What a gift this woman is to the world … I had tears in my eyes watching this ❤

I am sorry that you have to live with this condition but I cannot thank you enough for what you do by donating it! My son was preemie and in the NICU for two months and while I tried pumping every two hours, I produced just a tiny amount. He was given breastmilk that was donated and he is so big and strong now. Thank you!!❤

When my baby was 3 months old, I was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis. Treatment option has rendered a drastic reduction in my breastmilk. I really want the benefit of human breastmilk for my baby, so I broadcasted my appeal in our local breastfeeding group. The love response was overwhelming that my baby get to enjoy donated breastmilk up to 10months of age. We are just so grateful for milk sharing

What an amazing woman!! Bless her~ 🫶🏼🫶🏼

Thank you SO much for ALL you do!

Shes been given a curse but turned it into a gift for so many other babies, mums, and dads. What a blessing her condition is for others. Gos bless her and the little ones she helps to thrive.

Exclusively pumping for three months was extremely tough on me. She embodies strength and selflessness. ❤

Absolutely amazing and selfless. Thank you.

Your sacrifice for the health of other's babies is incredible! Your entire family has had to sacrifice because of this gift and burden you have been given. Thank you for giving so much of yourself (literally)! You are a true angel.

I have so much respect for her turning her disability into such a very special gift to so many little babies in need. I think that there are very few people out there that would be able and willing to do what she is doing day in, day out for so many years! May your future and those of all the babies and family's you helped be bright!

This woman is nothing short of a hero.

Wow! She’s truly helping people though! Amazing ❤

I hope those getting the milk directly are donating funds. First of all, the equipment and storage bags are expensive and the freezers are probably running up her electric bill. The time she takes to properly label and freeze the milk is also valuable. And formula is expenive, so they can at least give her some portion of the money they save by not having to get formula.

Exactly, I know that she's donating the milk, but these supplies are expensive even if they're just for your personal use! I really hope people are donating storage bags, etc. to her at the very least! Or maybe the family can write off the supplies and electricity on their taxes as charitable donations.

What a beautiful lady. I am in awe. What an amazing thing she is doing, and her lovely husband for supporting her. The mental strength it would take her and all the time and effort she must put into ensuring it is all kept up to standard is just incredible.💕

Her struggle has become a blessing to others. She may not always see it this way, but her very existence is a gift to so many people. What an amazing woman.

Absolutely the most beautiful thing she could do with her milk. I really have so much respect for her devotion to the cause of helping babies who need the breast milk. So sorry that her choices are so stark to in order to be able to end her milk production. She has a beautiful family and a very supportive husband. She’s a modern day heroine to so many.

There really is something so special about being able to help another mama feed her baby. I've done it once before, and feel strongly about doing it again after this baby is born. I'm also very glad that the medical community is admitting that tiny babies aren't designed to accept man-made products, and that breast milk really is so important.

Wow~! I had never ever heard of this condition until viewing this right now. Oh my goodness, what a hero of a woman, the pain with pumping, I've heard is exhausting etc. I was a new Mom who's milk refused to come through, when it finally did and I went to express it with my newborn daughter...as she was suckling, it stopped, it was terrible the whole time nursing on my breast there was no milk, she was starving; I had no option but to put her on formula.

Pumping isn’t painful. It does make you produce more milk. If this woman stopped pumping, she’d stop producing so much milk. She’s creating her own problem. It’s never recommended for an overproducer to pump because it just makes it worse. I over produced. The way you handle it is by hand expressing just a little to relieve pressure. Your body adjusts. I could’ve easily produced as much as her if I wanted to simply by pumping non-stop.
