Today, I found out my babysitter has been selling the breastmilk I produce for my baby and replacing it with formula, while still taking my money every week. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out my mom put breast milk in my cereal until I was 7 years old. FML
Today, I was called a horrible excuse for a mother just for buying formula for my baby. I just don’t produce any milk of my own. FML
Today, I found out that when my room-mate agreed to babysit someone's two year old kid for money, what he really planned on doing was dumping it with me. The kid won't stop crying and screaming. FML
Today, I caught my pregnant wife trying to suck milk from her breasts. FML
Today, I'm taking care of my 12-year-old daughter because my ex-wife thought she could cure our daughter's lactose intolerance by sneaking milk into her soy breakfast. The milk had expired. FML
Today, I got screamed at by a woman at work for feeding her 3-week-old infant formula instead of the bottled Kool-Aid that she packed. FML
Today I left my 8-week-old with my brother so I could return to work. His wife took all the breast milk I'd packed out of the fridge and poured it out. According to her, it was “gross” and she didn’t want it near her food. My son is allergic to formula. FML
Today, I found out that while my mother-in-law claimed to be babysitting my son, she was actually dropping him off at an unlicensed “day care” in a shady part of town so she could go out. How did I find out? The house was raided by police. FML
Today, I called my usual babysitter, one of the few people who can handle my difficult kids, to ask her to watch them for a night next week. She refused. It turns out my wife has been repeatedly underpaying her and she's fed up with it. So long date nights, I guess. FML
Today, I found out that my partner intentionally acts like she sleeps through our baby's cries in the middle of the night, just to force me to do all the late night feeds and diaper changes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Report her! Not only is she stealing but she's not giving the baby what its own mother thought it was receiving!!! Oh this is outrageous!

The next thing you know, the baby will be replaced with a doll and Junior will be "adopted" to Timbuktu

Seriously. It baffles me how dishonest people can be.

Meanwhile the doll is still receiving formula and little Junior is now receiving the milk that had been sold off in the first place.

report her to who? The police? good luck holding that one up in a court of law.

If she's an agency babysitter you can report her to the company and they'll take her off their books. If she's just a friend or does it off an ad or something the OP is out of luck.

You can totally report her to the police. She's selling unregulated human fluids. That's a huge health hazard. Those unregulated human fluids are also stolen. Double whammy.
HerMischief 21
Any evidence?
rickAUS 22
It is deliberate food tampering which makes it a criminal act, plus formula doesn't have the same lifespan as breast milk once made up and baby could get considerably sick.

Install a nannycam. Boom. Evidence of stealing and lying to her employer.
HerMischief 21
unless you put the nanny cam by the refrigerator, where it WOULD be noticed, it would he hard to catch them in the act.

Found the babysitter.

You do know they make pinhole cameras right? Or there's picture frame ones, lots of different styles and stuff.

Might wanna find new childcare..

I think it's time to get a new baby sitter.
DamnBailie 23
I dont even have children, but this post angered me. That is so wrong. Isnt there any way to report this?
HerMischief 21
Unfortunately, not really.

Fire her, give her bad references and sue her (in whatever courts are appropriate).
HerMischief 21
without evidence no court is appropriate.

Looks like we have an expert on our hands here, guys.
TotallyAradical 14
Another expert!!

@105 You must also be an expert. Since you seem convinced that the two of them are wrong, you must know quite a bit about how the law works. Tell me, how do you expect this to go to trial without evidence?

Maybe OP used a nanny cam and that's how she found out
MRP360 14
I think what we should all focus on is who the **** is buying her breastmilk.
fakedsincerity 32
bodybuilders (apparently it's better than a protein shake?!), mothers who can't express milk, people with ... unusual fetishes to name a few. lol.

There are private milk banks that will pay for donations. Although I would never recommend that a mother use one considering they are unregulated and don't screen donations for diseases.

It's a regulated program in Canada. at least where I live. it's pretty awesome if you ask me.
MonstreBelle 29
71: I didn't mean to make it sound like there are no regulated milk banks in the US. There are many regulated ones, they just don't pay for donations (with the exception of one that I know of). But I agree, they are indeed awesome. It's great that mothers who can't breastfeed for whatever reason now have an option that allows them to provide breast milk for their baby.

@16 that episode from Chappelle's Show should never be forgotten though it seems not many people know that's what you're referencing.

Lies and profits - she'd make it in the world of business.

Got proof? Report for a crime. No proof. Restraining order and fire her obviously.

A total eclipse is like a woman breastfeeding in a restaurant. It's free, it's beautiful, but under no circumstances should you look at it.
YFOS_fml 17
Oh so funny and so true!
typicalsloot_ 6
You do understand that the second half of the word breastfeeding is feeding, right? They are not breastfeeding to get attention or a rise from people. Mothers are trying to feed their babies and that is all. If you don't like it look away.

Doh, I guess no one here has watched The Simpsons!

Apparently humor and basic comprehension evade you 91.
