Sorry, the post I was replying to seemed to imply that it was pretty common for babies to not be able to drink breast milk.
Allergies to breastmilk are *extremely *rare - so rare that I can’t find any numbers online. But they can occur. Generally, however, what is perceived as a breatbilk allergy is a reaction to something in the mother’s diet.
But I’ll second the slap on the wrist for the “as she should” comment. It makes me very, very sad that I couldn’t breastfeed either of my babies, and very annoyed that I spend hours a day pumping milk, only to have to supplement with formula because, even with medication, I can’t produce enough milk. And then I’m made to feel guilty by judgemental busybodies who see her drinking (mstly my milk) from a bottle. Screw you and your underinformed opinions!
Oh. and about the OP: WTF? I’m a granola crunching hippie mom - I’ve tasted my own milk, and even had a taste comparison with two other lactating moms (it was late, we were a little slap-happy, it was like a wine tasting, only not.) but baby poop? That’s just wrong. An unhygenic. And gross.
I’d try breastmilk yogurt or cheese. Just not processed by an actual infant.
One suspects Aeschines needs to get away from the baby for a while.
Dude. Sleep. It’s a good thing.
I think I just lost all remaining appetite for lunch.
Seriously, what in God’s name is wrong with you that you feel the need to start a conversation about this?
Hey, don’t knock it till you’ve tried it!
Not really the place to ask… BUT we’re behind schedule for a Cailleigh update!
Those born without mouths.
In reality, I bet if you put some baby shit on a toast point and told some yuppies that it was the latest thing, you’d get some positive responses.
lieu must be on vacation.
No, I think you’d get responses along the lines of, “Man, this tastes like baby shit on toast!”
I think I’ll start using that phrase regularly. “I feel like baby shit on toast.” “That movie was baby shit on toast.” “This room looks like…”
Not if you put a high price tag on it, say $100 per ounce. Said yuppies will think “this tastes like baby shit on toast!” but they will wax poetic on the nuanced flavorings and sophisticated palate of the baby shit; “I detect subtle hints of Gerber pureed pears, berber carpet and plastic”…
If you wanted to get outrageously pretentious you could coment on what the mother ate.
…or comment, if you wanted to use words.
Or what the father smokes.
I’ll try a lot of things, but this just put me clean off lunch. You’re lucky I’d finished my cream cheese-and-fruit-stuffed croissant before I read this. queasy

Hey, I’m allergic to milk too! I couldn’t drink breast milk(or milk in general) so I had formula. I’m not lactose intolerant, just allergic to milk.

As for the OP, that’s gross. Poo just isn’t food.

Wait a sec, you’ve got something there!
My baby barfs up breast milk a LOT. It’s almost like a kind of yoghurt sauce. [\QUOTE]
Put it on a gyro and you’d have titsiki sauce.
YES! Exactly!
