Is it wrong to offer?
The wife of my husband's coworker is friends with me on Facebook. She had a little girl about two weeks before I had my son. She's struggling to produce enough breastmilk for her daughter and cannot even pump. She has to hand express it. She's going through bad depression. Her daughter is reacting very bad to the different formulas they're trying and she has acid reflux. She is on rice cereal for the reflux. Her daughter is allergic to all kind of lactose too. Me on the other hand, I can produce enough for my son and we dont have many any problems with him eating. My 13.5 lb 6 week old lol
Is it wrong to offer her my breastmilk to try for her daughter? If it helps her can pump for her. I don't pump for my son and I have a good supply too. It would just be a matter of keeping up with my supply and pumping. I have pumped in the past for my son while I was away for a few hours. I got about 5 oz all together. Is it rude to offer that to her?
Update on her response:
She said no thank you. She'd like to get her supply up and start saving it so when her daughter is finally over her problems that she can feed it to her then. Thank you so much for your advice!
