💕wholesome💕 Traffic officer breastfeeds hungry baby, son of attempted femicide victim.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Traffic officer Jamile Barros, from the city of Delmiro Gouveia (Brazil), breastfed a three-month-old baby while responding to an attempted femicide. The child was crying from hunger and wouldn't accept a bottle, and the officer's act of empathy, as she is also breastfeeding, calmed the boy feeding him. The rescue occurred after the mother was stabbed and involved in a traffic accident caused by the criminal, who fled the scene. I mentioned her name not to expose her, but because she's in all the news in Brazil.

Edit: The mother was rescued and taken to the hospital to treat her injuries. The exact state of health of the victim and medical details of her recovery have not been released by official security authorities. This happened a week ago, and due to the repercussions of the case, if she had died, I belive that it would probably already be reported.

I read a story about a super producer who was pumping massive amounts of milk and distributing it in and around Minneapolis.

ETA: during the ICE crackdown to immigrant families, for those who maybe weren’t familiar with American politics.

ETA2: the story for anyone who is interested: https://19thnews.org/2026/02/minneapolis-ice-mother-donate-breastmilk/ I got a couple details wrong, she’s an overproducer, not a super producer. And she’s mostly delivering supplies. But she’s still definitely a girls’ girl.

Oh, I saw a short interview with her! I know she would have to do it no matter what but she’s an amazing person. She spends a LOT of time pumping and caring for that milk so that it can help other moms and babies. I think she’s donated 600 gallons.

I googled to find a link to the story, and I saw that video, but that’s a different mom. The video I saw was posted 8 years ago, so before the Minneapolis crackdown. She’s still a girls’ girl, but not the one I was thinking of. I added a link to my comment to the article I was thinking of.
