[mumfor1standfinaltime]

I have to wonder - why?

[mumfor1standfinaltime]

Oh well, maybe it's just me then..!

[lulumama]

I am really trying to think of a sensible reply to this but I can't.

She's not exactly giving it away, is she? £5 starting bid and another fiver for the postage...

[southeastastra]

why illegal?

[Hillary]

Blimey

I know you can have breastmilk donors - they donate milk to very sick babies in SCBU but they are vetted - this is just odd! I wonder if anyone buys it

[fishie]

why is it illegal? odd, but not criminal surely??

[pooka]

Words can't describe
Now I have no problem with properly screened milk via a milk bank or even the concept of wet nursing where you know the person extremely well.
But selling your milk???? Horrid. Why doesn't she just give this lot to the milk bank too.
Will people be selling their blood too?

[misdee]

a lot of people swear by the benefits of breastmilk. i know of one bloke who regularly drank breast milk dueing his cancer treatment, but he had problems getting it.

[Notquitesotiredmum]

I know that it has to be screened before it can be used - HIV can pass through breastmilk, after all. V strange

[morningpaper]

I'm sure it is illegal to sell any body fluids or body parts in the UK

[Gingerbear]

Now, if it were breastmilk soap maybe there would be a few more bids?

[gingermonkey]

I think I am going to vomit - why the f*&k would anyone buy that, and just take her word for it that it is disease free. It could be anything! UGH!

However, what I would also like to know is what exactly were you doing searching for breast milk on ebay, mumfor1standfinaltime

[Hillary]

Pooka I'v heard of people selling their blood on the internet, theres a group of people called the human vampires or something where they drink other peoples blood.........this is a wierd world

[Gingerbear]

what about sperm donors mp? don't they get paid?

Or have I watched too many US soap operas?

[pinkbubble]

It must be true then- You can sell anything on EBay(wonder if the Mum is really hard up and needs money!!)

[lulumama]

£10 for 125 ml of frozen breastmilk

if she gives it to the SCBU,why charge for it on ebay , how

[Spidermama]

Still no bids as yet.

Wouldn't you have to be a bit odd to take it on trust from some unknown ebay seller and feed it to your baby?

[misdee]

spidermama, i dont think this is for babies.....

[southeastastra]

no-one has asked any questions either

[Hillary]

The photo of the bottle looks like its got a teat on it! I wonder if her baby couldn't drink anymore

[Twinklemegan]

as well!
