Extravagant things have been seen in Burning Man, the world's most psychedelic electronic music festival held every year in the Nevada desert. But who has given the note this edition has been Miki Agrawal, a woman who gave her breast milk to the festival participants.
He has shared on his Instagram account some curious photos taken at the festival wearing a breastfeeding top with two bottles connected to a breast pump that he pumped every three hours. As there were no refrigerators to keep it, he offered it to those who were looking for a hangover help or to "make lattes."
I pumped my breasts every three hours at @burningman and gave away most of my milk. Some people downed a whole four ounces hoping for a hangover cure. Some wanted it for their coffee to make lattes. So many were excited and curious to try it. I drank some too when I ran out of water, it tastes like sweet coconut milk So many people told me that they had no idea that I had to keep pumping every three hours because they didn't know that breasts would become engorged and super painful if they were not pumped - nature's way of keeping mama and baby working together -) It made me realize that most people (including me before I had Hiro) know very little about motherhood and birth and post birth and that this needs to be mandatory learning for all humans. Every human has been birthed and raised somehow and yet even the smartest people have no idea what this process looks like. Nobody learns how to become a parent, let alone a good one. Time to change this Great parenting can change the world More conversations about this soon #burningman # burningman2017 @annekejong
I pumped my breasts every three hours at @burningman and I gave away most of my milk. Some people consumed a total of four ounces (almost 120 milliliters) in hopes of finding a hangover cure. Some wanted her for her coffee to make lattes.
Many were excited and curious to try it. I also drank a little when I ran out of water, it tastes like sweet coconut milk. Many people told me that They had no idea that I had to remove myself every three hours because my breasts would get fat again and it would be very painful.
This made me realize that most people (including me before I had Hiro) know very little about motherhood, birth and post birth and that this must be mandatory learning for all human beings. Every human being has been born and raised in some way and yet even the most intelligent people have no idea what this process is like. No one learns how to become a father, much less a good one. It is time to change this great fatherhood can change the world.
What a priori may seem just an extravagance, and in fact it is, also the mother and businesswoman, creator of the underwear to wear during menstruation Think, wanted to give an important message through initiative.
He realized that many people don't have no idea of the sacrifices that mothers make and how is this breastfeeding, And in some way he has made it visible in a massive festival.
Is it dangerous for an adult to drink breast milk?
Many websites offer the sale of breast milk, not only for babies, but also for adults with the promise that it is digested better than cow's milk, which could cure diseases or improve the body's defenses.
The truth is that being a human fluid, drinking raw milk, without treating or pasteurizing, can transmit viruses and other infectious diseases such as HIV, hepatitis, syphilis, etc.
Doctors warn of the dangers of buying or consuming breast milk without control because it does not have the necessary safety guarantees, since "hygiene and cold chain" are not guaranteed and there is "risk of disease transmission".
