Would you breastfeed another person’s baby if they were unable to feed them?

Question

I saw this story online, and I thought it was absolutely lovely that a woman could help another mother out.

If another woman or man were unable to feed their baby, would you offer your breast?

Answer

Absolutely. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself hearing a hungry crying baby knowing i could have helped, if she wasn’t comfortable with me directly breastfeeding her baby I would hand express into a bottle.

Answer

I would hand express into a bottle but I wouldn't breastfeed directly

Answer

Absolutely.

Answer

I’ve always said I would!

Answer

You’re feeding a baby, nothing gross, weird, or sexual...people have weird hang ups...

Answer

I would for sure. My milk is clean and no HIV or nothing. So I know I can help and I wouldn't mind at all. They are all helpless at times

Answer

Yes I would in a heartbeat. I’ve been in both point of views but I knew the people. 
When my daughter was first born I had the hardest time getting her to latch (my nips at little lol) my little girl was getting so desperate. So my sister in law (who just recently had a baby too) offered to feed my daughter. I let her bc I couldn’t stand to let my child cry like that when there is someone to help. 
My friend has a baby 7m younger then my daughter. She would be at my moms all day and would only feed him like 2 times. He was just a newborn-2m. He wouldn’t cry but I could tell he was hungry so I would feed him. 🤷‍♀️
FED IS BEST!

Answer

I would pump or give my milk but I personally wouldn’t be comfortable breast feeding someone else’s baby. If it was an absolute necessity, and it was the only way that baby was eating though, yes I would.

Answer

In a second.

Answer

Yes absolutely. As long as I had the mom’s permission there’s no way a baby would go hungry if I had the ability to help
