Dont you just love how selfish people are quick to tell others they are the selfish ones. Sadly your sister is very rude and entitled.

This is a terrible situation to be put in.
I think the fact the lady was able to pump for 5 weeks to give her new nephew milk is a real blessing and the family should be grateful for that. They shouldn’t be putting the guilt on the grieving mum, it’s just not fair.

That’s a horrible situation to be in. I’m sorry for your loss and what a kind thing you’ve done. It was always going to be tempory

Oh dear…noone should be going through that.

Your sister should have been thankful that you were kind enough to give her that help in the first place!

That would have been hard for her to do in the begining but for her sister to call her all those names after she has stopped is terrible. The sister was lucky she was giving her the milk for so long

OMG, for the sister with the newborn she should be thankful for the breastmilk she has been given. Imagine is she had gone through the loss her sister had. I feel so sorry for the other sister. She is baring the loss of the of child along with her husband.

No one has the right to tell anyone what they should or shouldn’t do with their own bodies. She’s not being selfish, she’s looking after herself.

It is crazy that more and more these days, women are being seen as only vessels to have babies, or in this case, feed babies. What she does with her life and body are completely up to herself. She has already been very generous and caring, above what was needed. Her sister needs to stop being selfish and take care of her own child’s needs with other formulas.

The only one being selfish here is her sister. How would she like it if the tables were turned? She should be grateful that her sister donated her breastmilk at all. I’m so glad she has her husband who cares more for his wife’s feelings than her own family does.

Gees her sister should have some compassion for what she has gone through. Yes in the beginning it would have been a nice gesture to help her sister out, but when she made the call of ok I’ve had enough now, her sister should respect her discision and let her grieve for her still born child.

Wow, I feel so sorry for her having a sister who is being this way. She is dealing with so much grief, this wouldn’t be helping her at all

Disgusting, how can the sister expect you to continue? I hope this poor woman us getting therapy for her loss.

Doesn’t anyone think of what she is going through? Still producing milk for a dead child? That may sound terrible, but it is what is happening. And that is so hard for her to live with. I have lost a child and you need to grieve when this happens. Still producing milk prolongs the grieving – why can’t her sister understand this and get on with her life like she would have had to do if her sister wasn’t pregnant at the same time. Methinks soe common sense is required in this scenario

  I totally agree with you !

I really can’t believe this family is asking this of her.

This sounds like something out of novel

Definitely way out of line. Do what’s right for you and your mental health. Who cares about anyone else.

Very selfish sister. I can’t imagine the pain you must be going through and then to have that on top? She’s the one who’s selfish.

What a selfish sister…this poor woman has been through enough. So, so ,so sad.

Oh no. This poor woman, so sad, so brave to donate her breast milk. What a horrible situation
