Do I have a right to be upset about this?
Just wondering if my feelings are valid because I’m a little pissed about this. I breastfeed my baby and donate breast milk to local moms in my area. I’ve been donating for about 2 months now and one of my biggest fears has always been someone wasting my milk. I put so much time and effort into pumping/storing/freezing/organizing etc and buy all my supplies with my own money. I don’t charge anything for my milk or ask for anything in return. I donated over 200oz of milk to this woman last week. Completely free because again I don’t charge for my milk as long as it’s feeding another baby. 3-4 days later she texts me asking for more milk because she apparently left the milk at someone’s house and got into an argument with them. The person told her to come get her things and the milk and she refused because they were arguing so the person put all the milk outside and it all went bad. I then saw screenshots on Snapchat of the argument she had with this person and the person told her she was putting the milk outside if she didn’t come get it and she still refused. I saw in the screenshots that she also told this person she paid for the milk which that in itself made me feel kinda weird considering I donated it to her completely free of charge. I’m not sure why she would say she paid me for it. I felt so upset because I could have given that milk to my own baby or someone else’s baby if I knew it was all going to be wasted like that. Do I have a right to be upset ? This experience has honestly made me want to stop donating because I feel like my hard time and effort overall went to waste.
