I can’t believe she acted like that?!? Immature inconsiderate and disrespectful of her!!!
Your children always come first. You did nothing wrong.
Your baby comes first. Lock your pantry
Friend? Eliminate her from your life. You don’t need that kind of “friend.”
Definitely not wrong! It wasn’t even for your “friend’s” baby, she wanted it for someone else’s baby.
No. She is just worried but maybe you can split one until more is located
First of all I would remove this chick from my “friend” list.
Second your children should always be first in your life. Don’t feel bad about not giving away your baby’s food.
Fuck. This sucks for young families. It shouldn’t come to stuff like this.
Your baby comes first. Lock your pantry
Wow… this is a horrible situation and I understand taking care of your own, but we so need a better support system so that we don’t have mothers/friends fighting over formula to feed babies. Wtf America
I don’t feel you did anything wrong.
You paid for the formula for your kid you only had three left, she shouldn’t have been nosey and pushy to get a can knowing it was for your child.
She’s not your friend…if she treats you like that, than she may just want it to sell and make a chunk of cash.
No your not being selfish you did the right thing tell her to kick rocks that is no friend
I wouldn’t call her friend that’s a stretch
If you or your “friends” friend would be comfortable with it there’s a lot of women online who sell or donate breast milk.
I know some people think it’s weird but with the way things are going it may be the only option soon. I hope you and the other momma can find some soon.
She is not your friend. Let her go & focus on your children!
She doesnt sound like she has you and your babies best interest in mind. I wouldnt consider her a quality friend after that.
Why is your friend casually looking into your pantry?? Looks like she was looking for an argument. As bad as it sounds your baby comes first
nope you are not wrong you have to think about your child first.
Who even snoops in someone else’s pantry… omg, loose her.
There’s a few recipes for old fashioned baby formula to help.
Don’t let her make you feel guilty!
She’s rude as heck and entitled honestly
I can’t believe that she not only asked for it but also wanted it for free.
She is not a true friend I’m glad that you didn’t give in to this selfish person
She is not your friend!
You need a new friend
Ur baby is first and ur friend sounds like a jerk no offense.
Say NO and tell her to jump on her broom amd zoom away!
That’s no friend. She shouldn’t have even ask for it. She knows you have a son that needs it. And for her to talk to you like that is very disrespectful. You need to distance yourself from this person.
No, you’re not wrong. She’s a itch and gaslighting you. I wouldn’t be surprised if she wasn’t going to sell it for money herself. Drop this heffer - she’s no real friend! It’s not your job to help her help someone else. That’s crazy nonsense.
That is not a friend. When it comes to things of this nature MY kids come first. Even if I starve they do not. You did the right thing and she can FO all the way back home to never show her face again in my mind. Sorry not sorry. When it comes to my kids people can FAFO.
That’s really horrible! You feel for the other mama needing it but why would you put yourself in a bad situation, and you even said ok! She shouldn’t expect it for free!
Nope you’re not being selfish you’re keeping your child fed. She doesn’t seem like much of a friend to me
She’s not a friend you don’t ask someone that
I would’ve kicked her out of my house. If she asked really nicely and it really was an emergency I’d give her enough for a few bottles but Jesus entitled much?
You don’t need friends like that.
She wouldn’t be my friend its not like you had 10… and the way she said everything and no pay?? F that
She’s not your friend. You did nothing wrong.
You’re not wrong and she’s no real friend.
She is not a friend. Dump her.
First off your friend is being a B. Second its ultimately up to you if you give away formula. I dont know your child’s medical history or whether he requires a certain type or anything like that, but if he doesn’t I would call his doctor and see if he can eat more pureed/solid foods or goats milk to help reduce his formula intake. As long as it isn’t unhealthy to do so, it might help stretch your formula since he isn’t a newborn.
As for this other woman and her child, maybe see if the jerk friend you have will give you her number. Then if you do find a large stock you can inform her. Still helping without putting your child at risk. If she won’t give you the number or a way to contact her then I would wonder if she wasn’t trying to get it to sell it seeing as she was rummaging through your pantry and wanted it for free…
She should definitely pay. But I would feel bad for younger babies that are not able to eat solids. So much more you can do for a 6 month old than a 2 month old.
Sorry but I’d be ready to beat her ***
No you’re not wrong, and that is not a friend
You did NOTHING WRONG!!!
So did you give it or not?
I’m like wtf is going on with that why
I’m so glad my grandson isn’t on formula anymore
If I was rich I would as much as I could
Give it away
But I’m not and this concerns me a lot for them little Babies and especially with any special needs baby
I hope this stops soons
She is not your friend! That’s ridiculous!!
No you are not selfish! She is not your friend for saying those dumb things to you!!
Nope, you are not wrong. That person is not a friend if they are going to talk to you so disrespectful. I wouldn’t even invite them over again seeing as they just help themselves to your pantry. You take care of your baby and stand your ground. You did right.
Nope and I’d tell her to go home, she don’t understand that so be it. Her friends daughter can find it just as well as you can. Plus it’s hard enough to take a baby out to search for milk with a shortage!
She is not your friend
You have a 6 month old and another son and you are expecting and on a one income family and have a friend that comes over and demands that you gift a can of baby formula to her friends daughter and you are asking for advice. Girl please, you need a new friend all together!
She is no friend!!! Period. Good riddance.
Not a friend!!! Don’t feel bad mama
Tell her to fuck off. The cheek on some folk honestly. It’s your baby that needs fed to not just her friends. If she’s that bothered about it tell her to go find some her self. Your not selfish at all as I would do the same. Think you need to part ways and find another new friend
Nope not in the wrong!!
You are not wrong. Sounds like she purposely went over to look in your pantry. I’d cut her off immediately
You aren’t wrong. Lose that “friend”
No you aren’t cause you have to take care of your baby first. She’s not a friend if she was so disrespectful
It’s fend for yourself bc nobody is out there “giving” cams away… everybody I know is searching for their baby. Me and my sister have been searching everywhere for 3 weeks ( my niece drinks the hard to find nutramigen) and found nothing… Today I run in our local grocery store, which I just checked monday, and they had 10 cans… I bought 6 for her and I DO NOT feel bad… I was at the right place at the right time I guess
She is not your friend. I would not have her over anymore
No you aren’t wrong, she isn’t your friend and keep her out your house.
I have heard that you can go to Amazon, switch your browser yo Canada or the UK and order from there. I know it costs more but could help.
My question is why was she snooping in your pantry?
Your friend was WAY out of line in YOUR house! Basic rules are… tend your own home before worrying about someone else… your baby, YOUR family found extra cans for YOUR child. There is NO way you should be responsible
For a friend of a friends daughters kid. That’s NUTS!!! You feed YOUR child because no one is going to give YOU a whole can when you run short.
You were NOT the a-hole.
I’d re-evaluate who I call friends
You are absolutely not wrong! There’s no way I would chance my child not having food to eat, that’s number 1 before anything.
I would have given her the boot the moment she started being disrespectful tbh!
Nope. And forget her. You have to think of your own baby.
She is not your friend.
You are wrong.If your A Christian and supposedly trusting in God for your needs…
You’re not wrong for not sharing, but you are wrong for having more and more babies on a one income.
I wouldn’t be asking for it, much less getting upset if I were told no. She’s the terrible one…
That would be the last time she would enter my home. A very nasty lady.
No you’re not wrong. Keep your formula your baby will need it sounds like she’s selfish tell her to go buy the formula her self
Tell her to go hustle for her friend wtf the nerve some people have
It’s not even her baby so why she mad
You are absolutely not wrong. what’s wrong with her?!
For one she shouldn’t be taking it upon herself to go through your cabinets She’s aware there’s a shortage so it’s pretty bold of her to even ask.
Absolutely not the asshole. Next time she comes over don’t have the formula in the pantry
Your first responsibility is to YOUR son.
Wow. What a great friend (sarcasm). This is an unfortunate situation for everyone with babies and you are not wrong for thinking of your own!
Wow I’m stunned she would even say that. I can understand her asking for her friends baby but yelling then saying no to paying you errrr no not on in my book. You had to pay for them and if she found one in a shop she would have to pay for it so why should it be free to her. I’m sorry but if definitely think twice about this friendship. None and I mean none of my friends would ever put me in that situation especially if they knew it was so hard to get and you just can’t afford to give something that expensive away when your baby still needs it. You did the right thing in my eyes and she should never have said anything let alone try and guilt trip you.
It’s not even for HER, but her “friend”??? Umm she can kindly go to hell and I said what I said.
No you are not your child first always besides that she shouldn’t of been going through your cabinets then
That not a friend,that’s a self centered,what can I get for free today, no good,sorry lazy person! Cut ties! And don’t look back.Nobody is gonna,scream at me in my house and take from my kids…
No you are NOT WRONG
You not wrong I’m sorry your own kids come first before anyone else’s I know it’s not nice that the other lady is having trouble getting any but it’s not your responsibility I’m sure if you had extra you didn’t need then you would help out your so called friend is rude and disrespectful I wouldn’t be her friend anymore personally and what business did she have going into your pantry being nosy
You should never let that “friend” back in your home. That was completely uncalled for…
NOPE!! You aint in the wrong, you have every right to say NO.
You stated price is expensive, stock availability is at a low, family paid for them but you repaid the money and only have single income!!!
Your children are your priority first!
If she had asked for 1 or 2 bottle servings be different.
Sorry hun but she wasnt there to visit you she was there for Baby formula obviously she knew you would have stock pile.
Her attitude and remarks are a dead give away she aint a friend.
Tell her to go F herself! She’s no friend!
She should’ve minded her business ehst you have in your home is no bodies business and no one’s entitled to your food. Don’t feel bad the other momma will find a way.
No. You aren’t wrong. She was totally wrong, and she proved that by her actions…yelling and name calling.
Find yourself a new friend! YOUR baby comes first! The only one being selfish is your “friend”.
God provided your baby with a mama and that is your job to take care of YOUR baby. Your child comes first, he/she cannot fend for themselves. And WHY was your “friend” in your pantry anyway?
Worry about your son first.
I just can’t believe this interaction even took place in your home…
She shouldn’t have opened her mouth. You need that formula. Tell her to stop disrespecting you. It would be different if your whole pantry was chalk full of it but a few cans? That bi/"& can stfu
Hell naw. You don’t know your friend’s, friends daughter. if you had excess, maybe. But 3 cans isn’t enough to give out.
Ditch your friend now. She is not a friend. She’s a nut job!!! No one is giving shit away for free. We are all just trying to live. F her. You go girl! Learn to stand by your NO! Scream it loud!
Definitely not wrong!!!
No, those are your baby’s and you are under no obligation to share. Especially share for free.
No you are NOT wrong.
