God Help Us, Breast Milk Jewelry has it's own Wikipedia page. 

Shit, that's even weirder than I thought it was going to be, and I have a pretty robust imagination. 

[GeeGolly]

Can nothing be just a memory anymore? Pee sticks and now breast milk?!

You fucking fed your kid. Something you'll be doing for the next 18+ years. A requirement of the job called parenting.

I'm not sure what this breastmilk jewelry is supposed to represent - mother child bond, sacrifice, accomplishment? Like what the actual fuck?!

This is not the same as a lock of hair from the first haircut or the first lost tooth. This about some random milliliter of milk expressed out of a boob.

Amy's uncomfortable, tacky, mini crystal ball thing she calls a ring, is really only one step removed in looks and function from a Ring Pop.

I agree, the sweater looks awful. Itchy and motheaten.

Breast milk ring? OH EMM GEE. And of course my mind has hopped off to wonder what other speshul bodily discharges I've been overlooking to have made into a piece of commemorative jewelry. I will NOT fill in the blanks. You're welcome. **facepalm** 

Well, honey, I really don't want to swallow it. .... But I'll have a bracelet made out of it!

I checked out some prices on these oh so special rings and it seems like $300-$800 is the average.  I realize that I am just a bleeding-heart liberal. but why not take that money and donate to a charity that feeds kids who don't have enough to eat?

Can you imagine how much an organization like No Kid Hungry could do with $300 from every breastfeeding mom?  Or even just the ones who think breastfeeding jewelry is a necessity.  Isn't that a much better way to remember how lucky you were to be able to breastfeed your child?

in Amy's case, maybe she could have used the money to pay the delinquent taxes on her home

And maybe a box of mothballs to prevent her sweaters from being eaten.

I'm going to open up my own jewelry boutique.  Did you just find a fossilized, linty Cheerio under the floormat of your minivan?  Make it into a gorgeous ring!  Those 254 juice box straw-wrappers shoved in between your couch cushions?  They make stunning earrings!  How about the box tops to the 1,587 cartons of mac & cheese you served your kids when they wouldn't eat anything else?  You've got yourself a one-of-a-kind, conversation-starting necklace!

All products are $649.99, does not include shipping and handling.

Jesus. Michelle could've made BANK selling her placenta(s).

[thehorseofpower]

Ughhh....not breast milk jewelry! I have a close friend who proudly posted her breast milk "pearl" necklace charm on Facebook awhile back. She viewed it as a necessary commemoration of the hard work she did in breastfeeding. I don't understand why the growing child in front of you is not commemoration enough of one's sacrifices as a parent. Creating jewelry out of one's own bodily fluids is just beyond me.

Those holes on Amy's sweater aren't from moths, those are from a dropped cigarette.  

[BigBingerBro]

I can't get over her posting that with the holey sweater.  Maybe it's an old hand-me-down or gift she got that has sentimental value or something.

Notice her hand is resting on a Louis bag. Could be a fake, but it doesn't seem like rendering unto Caesar is Amy's first priority. 

[iwantcookies]

Michelle can wear 2 rings on almost every finger. 
 

Jill Rod will probably buy one ASAP with the stimulus $$$.

[GeeGolly]

Distressed sweaters are in style right now. I'm guessing the pandemic helped leaning into the comfy relaxed trends.

I do not have a problem with someone wearing a favorite comfy sweater that's seen better days,  but, I will never understand anyone wearing stuff that is new but manufactured to look old.

Maybe it's an old one she keeps in the car in case she goes out thinking she doesn't need a jacket but finds herself colder than she expected. The cuff looks to be in bad shape too.

[Pinke]

I'm a little younger than Amy and while distressed sweaters aren't my style, they are a thing for sure. Her sweater definitely has that intentional distressed look (that includes the cuff, which has a very regular pattern/look to it). I'm pretty sure it's not some really old or worn-out thing.

The dark hair looks nice on her. Social media breaks can be nice, but I wonder how long this will last for her. Don’t get me wrong- she can take as short or as long a break as she wants, (no judgment) but without SM would she still be relevant? Is she making any money from it? Or is she done on the Duggar gravy train?

Whatever is best for her and her family she should do. 

[awaken]

Yet, here she is on SM. Quite a “break” she’s having. Love how people need to announce their breaks and keep posting during them!  🙄😂

[GeeGolly]

That whole "with everyone entitled to their own opinion" is a bit much for Amy? lol

Not quite sure what she meant by that, but it reads like she only wants to see posts that share her opinion. How gracious of her.

Yes, I was trying to think of what to say about that last night and gave up, but it's a real asshole take. 

[ouinason]

I think she really meant "with everyone thinking they need to share their opinion".

If still doesn't read well. She wants an echo chamber of "real" stuff. Whatever her definition of "real" is.

If you open up your SM to thousands of strangers, you’re going to get all kinds of different opinions. If you don’t want that, make it private. 🤷‍♀️

If that's true, its only slightly better. I'm guessing she puts her stuff out there because she loves the positive feedback. So we're kind of back to her only wanting agreeable posts.

I totally get her becoming tired of the off the wall, have nothing to do anything, negative posts, but that's part of the game.

Meet Potato Duggar, our newest addition. And I birthed every one of them.

Where can I see this... it sounds hilarious 😂 

[thehorseofpower]

I read Amy's "everyone's entitled to their own opinion" bit in the context of the rest of the sentence mentioning fake news and politics...as in, she was tired of the constant fake news being shared as fact and political arguments and people feeling entitled to their own opinion regardless of what the actual facts are. I can't disagree with that, if that is indeed what she meant. Opinions that fly in the face of facts and evidence that are presented as equally valid make me angry and frustrated.

I have a sneaking suspicion Amy has a shaky grasp on distinguishing between fact and opinion herself, though.

Ha...no disagreement there! I may agree with the overall sentiment but I suspect it would end there if I ever actually talked to her...

What an attention seeker.  I guess she wasn't invited to the wedding?

 Lady, you did a reality show about how your relationship sucked within a year of your marriage. It doesn’t take much for the imagination to wander. Plus, it seem more like a marriage of convenience and settling then love. But don’t worry, you’ve got a few more years before the inevitable divorce. 

[BitterApple]

Sure, Amy. You just randomly needed to share relationship wisdom and didn't tease divorce for attention-seeking purposes. She's about as transparent as saran wrap.

Sorry, Amy. You're small potatoes. This fishing expedition won't land you an Oprah tell-all. 

[emma675]

Is Amy really comparing herself to Meghan Markle?? I don't know whether to laugh or shake my head. 

[Minivanessa]

Oh, Amy. Just STFU already.

[JoanArc]

She doesn't even have the "my parents MADE me" excuse.

Royalty in her own mind.
