  • For those of you wondering who came up with this question- a FB group I am a part of- someone legit asked this question because she tasted her own bm and was curious if you could survive on it. 

    @nutmegs8 yeah I could probably do that too without a pump. my boobs are big enough.

  • I just spent way too much time thinking about this. I would starve since I never produced more than 15 oz a day!

    The question only makes sense if there is no other food source and you have a source of potable water.

    Truly this is a case where you'd probably be best off as a formula feeder who packed a stash...that stuff is crazy fortified!

  • The thought of drinking my own breastmilk makes me want to vomit. I would totally starve to death in this scenario!
  • This makes me think of the movie Alive for some reason.

    If I could manage to relactate. I wouldnt even need a pump. Long saggy H cups for the win!! I didn't produce much, but it would be more than the random centipede they seem to eat on "naked and afraid"

  • Um. What?





    I'm not new. I just hate The Bump. 

  • @flerlgirl‌ a fb group my invited to asks all sorts of common sense questions, in a serious manner, and this was one of them.
