Connecting Babies and Breastmilk since 2010
Rules
Contrary to what it says when creating a post, we require your post to have a title! We can't edit the placeholder text.
Your title must state whether you have an offer or a request and include your approximate location (e.g., "Offer/donation in Orange County" or "Request/ISO in Columbus").
No more. This way, members can easily see where someone is located without having to read the whole post.
No posting/commenting on behalf of others (friend, brother, uncle, sister, sister-in-law, daughter, etc.) unless you STATE that you are a medical care provider – someone who is in the position of taking legal responsibility for someone else's health, ie. midwives, nurse practitioners and physicians, or a baby's legal representative, ie PoA, foster parents.
Only the person who expressed the milk can offer the milk.
The reason for this rule is complex, but ultimately, it is about personal authority and responsibility.
Anything unrelated to milksharing may be removed at our discretion to keep posts focused on offers and requests and easy to navigate.
This includes no trading of pumps, parts, diapers, etc. for milk.
Bag-for-bag replacement requests and offers are allowed, though not required.
If not part of a request, offering pumps, parts, diapers, etc., is allowed. No food, formula, or supplement items.
Please report anyone selling, scamming, spamming, or otherwise contacting you in ways unrelated to milksharing and your milksharing post. This is the only way we can keep this forum as safe as possible.
Take screenshots of the interaction so we can take action, and use the site's chat, contact us, or email us at eatsonfeetsmail@gmail.com.
Do not post or discuss people on the page. No trolling.
No links or website mentions.
Many may not understand or support milksharing. Others may have questionable safety information. We only offer this platform for families to connect with each other directly.
This includes suggestions for formula, pumping, etc.
Certain issues could make specific advice, recommendations, or suggestions dangerous.
People who offer or request milk on our network have made an informed decision to do so and are not asking for advice.
Do not comment on offers made to someone's request. Please post your own request.
Please address our whole community when posting by using words like everyone, all, families, donors, etc.
Not every family has a mama, and yes, we have donors who do not identify as mamas. It is not our place to tell other people who they are; acknowledging others does not dismiss who you are!
We want all families to feel welcome, as all babies deserve human milk.
Posts addressing mamas only are removed.
