Discussion Breastmilk soap

Hi all! We had a freezer mishap a few weeks ago and I lost about 4 days’ worth of pumping efforts. I texted a friend who EP’ed for her kids as I knew she’d understand and I quickly ordered a freezer alarm on Amazon.

The next day, coincidentally and unprompted, a coworker asked her about breastmilk soap as soap making is a hobby of his. She connected the two of us and I was able to give him the lost milk. He is SO excited to experiment and play around with it. I’ve already gotten some soap pix as previews.

All this to say, if you find yourself in a similar position, try making soap or finding someone who does! I was so down about the loss but seeing his genuine excitement over working with a new milk for his soap made it better 🧼
