Honeypie agony auntYour neighbor should PROVIDE you with formula or pre-pumped breatmilk for you to feed the child.

But, I guess it is up to you and the parents of the child.

Breast milk changes with time to adapt to the baby's growing needs. Unless you are going to be breast feeding this baby all the time, it's not a good idea because one of you will be giving it unsuitable milk.

It's not a job to be shared!

I don't know if this question is for real or not, but if it is, NO, of course you should not breastfeed your neighbor's baby without their knowing.

If they've asked you to, you all three need to go to the doctor to discuss the situation and make sure there are no safety issues (HIV, ect)

Wet nursing has been around for centuries but it has to be done safely.
