******-Milk Mementos: Awful or Amazing?

Question

For many mothers, ************* provides a special period of closeness with their newborn babies. Yet, the process can also be incredibly painful and uncomfortable. As a result, some mothers can’t wait to stop ************* while others are sad to have to ever stop. Among mothers in the second category, ******-milk mementos are now all the rage.

You may be wondering: what exactly is a ******-milk memento? Apparently, these days many women want to have souvenirs to fondly remember their time spent *************. As a result, they are willing to ship off samples of their ****** milk to be turned into jewelry or buy kits to preserve the milk on their own.

Mommy Milk Creations and Hollyday Designs (both on craft site Etsy.com) are two stores that produce ******-milk jewelry. From anywhere between $60 and $125 dollars they will plasticize a sample of your ****** milk, mold it into a miniature shape, and then set it into a pendant of your choice.

We understand wanting to commemorate the newborn phase, but we prefer baby footprints to anything actually made out of ****** milk. What do you think *********? Are ******-milk mementos awful or amazing?

Answer 1

Umm...wow, really? It's not awful, but it's far from amazing.

"I love that pendant! Where did you get it?"
"It's my ****** milk."
" . . . (Awkward)"

Answer 2

I agree.

Answer 3

sounds stupid

Answer 4

Well, not exactly, but it sure is not amazing! I think it is just a gimmick to make money.

Answer 5

Why not save a lock of the baby's hair or take a picture?!

*** the shop owner has 319 sales? People do buy these apparently.

Answer 6

Much better to have a photo of you ************* your baby as a memento. ************* is a wonderful thing, but this is pushing it a little bit too far.

Answer 7

I....what?

Answer 8

I wish that there were an in between choice. I AM staunchly in favor of ****** feeding. I am a little creeped out by the whole memento thing (as I am about the turning a loved one's ashes into jewlery ala a fake diamond or whatever). As strong an advocate as I am of ****** feeding...the whole memento thing is a bit creepy for me....

Answer 9

That's a little over the top.

Answer 10

I agree.

Answer 11

'What I would like to see is mommas ****** milk for babies '

Answer 12

Or a vial of semen ala Angelina Jolie....

Answer 13

The designs are awesome but the concept is awkward. I've ********* each of my ******** and I don't need jewelry made out of my ********** to remember how special of time it was.

Answer 14

Well I didn't want to put awful because after actually looking at the pendants...they are really cute. Not something I would do myself but it is a neat idea for someone that wants to.

Answer 15

so long as it is kept in PRIVATE by the parents

Answer 16

Crap, I read it as ******-Milk Mentos, I was like ***, who in their right mind would want that, it tastes and smells bad, who would want their breath artificially scented that way?

Answer 17

LOL!

Answer 18

Freakin' ridiculous. The best "memento" from ****** feeding your ***** is bond you have built with your *****. Why the **** do people feel like they have to make a buck off of EVERYTHING now? Sheesh!

Answer 19

Milk mementos is just freaky. How would ha going onto ****** milk be a memento of *************. Your memento of those days are your *****, you won't forget them.

Saving milk is as strange as saving your steak as a memento of an anniversary dinner. Just weird.

Answer 20

It's not something we need to think about. I'm glad there are mothers but I wouldn't want to be one. I like milk from the fridge.

Answer 21

I...just don't really have a comment...

Answer 22

SHHHHHHHH! Don't give anyone any ideas...

Answer 23

Mmm, ***** flavored.

Answer 24

What... why... I don't want to know. Shouldn't the *baby* be what you cherish in fond memory of your ************* days? Most women cherish their times of pregnancy too, but that doesn't mean that they should make jewelry out of their placenta. Oh... oh no. I hope they're not making jewelry out of the placenta. I... I just don't want to know anymore.

Answer 25

kinda creepy too

Answer 26

Answer 27

Not only is it Awful... It is flat out stupid.....! So should the father send some of the remaining sperm from the act of making the baby off as well.... After all that is what started the beginning of this ****** feeding baby....

And I am sure if body fluids are being preserved pursuant to the parents both parties should be represented.... Now don't get me wrong if I can find enough people stupid enough to pay me to memorialize their body fluids so they can wear it around their neck or on their finger I would do it as well.... JOMO

Answer 28

What a cheesy idea!!

Answer 29

That is truly sick and disgusting. And I suppose the next thing to hang on a pendant will be baby's first ****?

Answer 30

Someone has already done it.
Not quite a pendent but...

Answer 31

Glad it was over but its an amazing experience..

Answer 32

Wow, what a timely question.
I just sent my seed to be forever encapsulated in a pendent.

Answer 33

ROFLMAO!!!!! I asked earlier if I could do that too.... XD

Answer 34

This is one of the best comments I've read in a long time. XD

Answer 36

awful but amazing and nutritious for the babys

Answer 37

Honestly, I just do not know ... My two kids *************, I'm really proud of it. Because when many have a problem with that, I'm just milking cow))) But I did not occur to perpetuate my achievement. If I have a third *****, well, I would think))) But while it sounds stupid.

Answer 38

unless I'm so kind of a pervert.........

Answer 39

And for all those people going into how nutritious and healthy it is to ********** your baby...yes, that is very true, but this isn't about that. It's about some cheesy (no pun intended) gimmick for some company to sell to ************* mothers.
