So there shouldn’t be a stigma around a mother paying or accepting donated milk from another lactating woman. But we’re still at the stage where feeding a synthetic concoction made from a different species’ breastmilk is okay, but saying another woman breastfeeds your baby would get you weird looks. Wet nurses used to be a thing!
Sure, but that’s not the case with the vast majority of women who use formula. Nestle doesn’t market this stuff as a product for women who can’t breastfeed, they market it as something superior to breast milk in general.
Not everybody can breastfeed tho.
