Many mothers are curious about their own breast milk, and it turns out they’re not alone. A recent survey found that nearly two out of five breastfeeding moms have tasted their own milk. This isn’t as unusual as it may sound; it’s similar to the instinct to sample your cooking before serving it to others.
I’ve always been one to sneak a little taste of whatever I’m making, so it was no surprise that I decided to try my own milk while breastfeeding. One fellow mom in our community shared, “I tasted it out of curiosity, and it was sweet!”
If you’re new to motherhood, the idea might seem odd, but many moms are just as inquisitive. In fact, about 62% of breastfeeding moms reported that someone other than their baby has sampled their milk. The flavor of breast milk can vary; it is often compared to cow’s milk, and in most cases, it is safe to try. Factors like your diet and how you store pumped milk can influence its taste.
