First…why is she just going through your cabinets??? I have friends that I’ve know for many, many years and I have never gone through their house like that!!!
Second…you’d be booted to the curb. We are friends not your friend n I!!! And it’s NOT my place/responbility to fed another child. Obviously she feels that her other friend is more important to her than You n your child!!!
You definitely ARE NOT WRONG!!!

you dont even know the other baby exists. from her reaction, she might have been planning on selling it as a price gouging supplier. always take care of your own baby.

Do not give any away
3 cans would cover one of my kids for roughly a month. Why should you short your family to benefit her friend’s family? Its not like you were sitting on 30 cans, then yea ok sure give up a couple freebies or low cost maybe. Otherwise no.
Don’t let that person Bamba Looze you. Hang on to all the food you have for your baby. Do you have a Pediatrician? If not, get one or visit a well baby clinic and get a diet for your baby. Tell the Pediatrician how much formula you have and should you go ahead and use it all up for your baby who will soon be old enough to start on solids for some of its meals. Did anyone give you a baby book if you had any baby showers parties? Read it! Honey, you are doing fine and enjoy that little bundle of joy and overwork! And loose that “friend.”
Not wrong - I understand having empathy for other families but at the end of the day. Your baby comes first. Just like my kids come first for me.
Do NOT feel bad mama.
no you’re not mean or anything else someone might say. in different circumstances that wouldn’t nice, but thats not the case, so don’t let that person make you sad. ur baby needs food too. God bless

Speaking to you like that!? That is NO FRIEND. Wow. She would’ve been finding the exit to my house very fast and never coming back. And you are not wrong for holding it back for your own son. I would do the exact same. Everyone else can get bent. There is nothing that I won’t do for my babies. From one mama to another, YOUR kids come first, ALWAYS. Anything else would be a disservice to them. Bring out that mama bear and DO NOT back down.

Nope you arent wrong. They are yours and you don’t have to help out. Your priority is your son. Who’s to say he isn’t gonna go through a growth spirt and need more bottles? 3 cans is barely enough.

I would have put my hands on her…that is no friend do not raise your voice to me especially in my house. Im sorry her friends baby is without but as a mother you make sure your baby is not without. She wasn’t your friend begging for a can that’s one thing she’s a friend of a friend. The audacity of her. She would not be at my house ever again. It’s on thing when you can give away things and it’s another thing when you are surviving on what you have. No ma’am

You are not unfair. Till you things get better you hang in to it First you don’t know the person. Second your baby needs it and lastly. Single min with limited funds. It’s different or you knew the person
Why was she in your pantry? I don’t consider her a friend if she treated you that way
Key. Asking for her friend. How does she know what that situation is. She isn’t being a friend to you. Stand firm. Your baby had a wise mama.

Whew Chile, watch who you call friend. I wouldn’t have given her a damn thing. You were down to your LAST 3 cans and there’s a formula shortage. She can be mad all she want, YOUR baby should be your priority. So NO, you weren’t wrong for refusing.
Nah. Take care of YOUR baby. I wouldn’t give her crap with that attitude.

No. This is a hard lesson being learned by the latest generation of “what’s yours is mine” mentality.
You should always focus on YOUR family first. Your son is almost out which means YOUR baby would be the one potentially to starve. We can only help as a community one by one. Giving one baby food but denying another doesn’t do anything.
You aren’t wrong for it. It’s a horrible situation but I also would never expect anyone to give my son their baby’s formula. Especially not for free.

Psht id said bye to this “friend” real fast 
my family is first! You were not wrong except in the fact that you let her make you feel bad about doing what’s right by your child and then you let her guilt you into caving and giving her the can. Her friend can find their own stuff that’s not your responsibility and after she called you a bitch I’d told her to leave my house!
Don’t let other make
You question how you feel or guilt you into something that goes against your beliefs
Sweetie that’s no friend.The simple no and why should have been the end of that conversation.But she instigated a horrible judgmental accusation on you.I would really consider who you let in close to your private settings.No true friend would have out you on something like that knowing how hard it’s been.

No … you are not wrong. She was in the wrong to 1) go through your pantry 2) ask you to give up anything in your pantry, let alone such a precious commodity as formula right now, and 3) for cursing you when you refused.
She is not a friend.
I’m sure there are lots of parents out there that are worried about how they will find formula for their babies. The thought that she wanted to put your child’s health at risk for some other friend’s baby is ridiculous.

No you’re not wrong or selfish. This was not about you, but your child. It’s your job to look out for him. It’s one thing if there was a guarantee that you could replace it for him, but with no guarantee of finding it let alone the finances to, she can get lost. What kind of friend has no care or concern for the consequences that your child may have to suffer. Not to mention her behavior and how she spoke to you. She’s not your real friend, and those manipulative tactics she tried can kick rocks too. If she really cared about her friends baby having formula that bad she would of paid for it. She was being selfish when she refused to pay. She only wanted it so bad as long as it didn’t cost her, but didn’t care that it would cost you.

She’s not a true friend. Yes it is upsetting that so many moms are frantically searching for formula to feed their little ones but if I was mom to baby right now and relied in formula and I only had a few I wouldn’t give one away. Now if I had 8-10 yes sure 1 can can go but that’s it and you’re paying me for it. For something so important and hard to find right now I couldn’t short myself or my child.
