Breastmilk can turn all shades. Even green. Pink breastmilk is normal and is usually a result due to a small amount of blood and it is not harmful whatsoever, even with the bacterial infection, it is still safe for the mother to breastfeed, so I'm not suprised he didnt think anything was wrong. Sometimes they wont even advise antibiotic treatment as long as mom and baby appear to be healthy.

@@qecy3190 Honestly I haven't heard anyone call any part of their leg, hip, or pelvic region a "Russell" and I speak only English. Maybe she was actually trying to say mussel!

I wonder if her parents asked her later on as she has grown up to see what Russell means or if she was trying to say mussel.
I thought that she tried to describe the sounds of the pain, rather than the part of the body where the pain was presented. When I was about 3-4 years, I called tea cakes "round buns with bubbles on it".

Carry on feeding your baby milk that is turning pink, not on your life, I would never feed my baby milk that had the tiniest hint of colour. And the first thing I would have said “check the milk, check it now” for the sake of my baby and myself.
@@emelle_1953 i guess the milk was already infected before the bacteria colonized even more and multiply to change the color, but my comment was when the pediatrician told the mom to give the milk to the baby even if it is bright pink, we should never give the baby this milk and we should look for the bacteria causing it.
I thought I'd watch this but I can't. Literally, within the first lines, I became a little annoyed. Most doctors don't know everything, which is why there are specialist in each field. But being a person who lives with an undiagnosed chronic illness where my doctor's know that there is something wrong but they can't tell me why. It's my everyday and people often think maybe I'm not as bad as I say when I do talk about it, but that's because I'm not complaining 24/7 because that won't help. I said stuff when I was younger but my mother thought I was "okay" and it'd go away. I also have a seizure disorder that went undiagnosed for years and now have issues because of it. If your child is telling you something, listen to them. You are their only advocate and you can be the difference between an ok quality of life and a body shutting down due to lack help.
The kid was howling in pain all night and you did not call an ambulance?! No wonder these illnesses took ages to figure out!' No one did anything correctly to try and solve it!!
I'm a (retired) medical technologist. I could tell that this was Serratia as soon as I saw it. I've actually seen it in water bottles that are not sterile.
As soon as she first saw it had gone pink I thought obviously something has contaminated the milk and most probably a bacteria lol I can’t believe a doctor didn’t pick that up. I’m no expert, just spent the last 25 years of my life reading up about anything to do with biology, health and medicine etc so can have some sort of idea but a fkn dr should have a clue.

Sorry but I gotta take the side of the dad. Ofc it seems horrid to us. But we don't know the child. He does. Some kids act a bit for attention.

It really makes me angry when people dismiss kids clearly in pain and not feeling well because they’re kids and “being dramatic” Little kids don’t fake things or lie well at all.
Two weeks is far too long. "Intense pain" that makes a child walk funny is not "growing pains". I'm a little angry with the parents for letting it go for two weeks.
I dont understand why they told her to keep nursing the baby with mastitis and pink milk! Or why they didnt test the milk immediately. If there is mastitis the baby can get infected if there is infection
A calf can still nurse off of its momma cow if it has mastitis in fact it is encouraged or for them to be milked every 2 hours just like it is encouraged for a human with mastitis to keep breast feeding or pumping every 2 hours to help brake up the clots but yes it is not safe for a human to drink cow milk from a cow with mastitis
I'm a little put off by Brooke's parents saying _what happened to my life_ and describing how the hour they had to wait for MRI results was such torture.... Poor little thing had to go two weeks before y'all even took her to the doctor. Why wouldn't they be talking about what happened to _Brooke's_ life? How will it affect _Brooke_ ??? I dunno.
There was another case where the mother ignored her daughter pain because the doctors told her she was fine. When they found out she was actually in pain the mother was so remorseful, she couldn't stop talking about how terrible she felt and how terrible her daughter must have felt. This mother showed 0 remorse.
Poor mum! Breastfeeding isn't as easy as everyone thinks it is. The doctors at first probably thought it was some blood as mums call their doctors and breastfeeding consultants concerned about "pink" Milk. Wish these doctors took this case abit more serious. Happy the family is better off now.
Rinsuki I absolutely agree 100% but it does happen unfortunately.....we hear about it often in our Mum group. BUT fortunately there is a big movement in breastfeeding which is great !!! There are more studies, more breastfeeding consultants and more breastfeeding volunteers that are helping,hearing and supporting breastfeeding mums/parents.
Brooks symptoms sound so much like mine that I thought she had the same disease as me which is Gauchers Disease. Im so happy they diagnosed her in time,
Would depend on if it was a closed or open sytem. Some brands have membranes that close the tubes and motor off from becoming exposed to any moisture that would come from the breast. Other brands dont. In either way tubes to bottles would need to be replaced in my opinion.
I'm kind of mad at the first pair of parents. What toddler that age fakes pain for that long? Children that age don't have an attention span long enough to fake pain for longer than a day maybe. And if you're child isn't even playing like they used to and struggles to pick up a toy then that's a red flag. Never seen a child that age take it that far.
Breastmilk comes in all different shades. It can be green, orange, blue, brownish, and pink. Pink breastmilk is usually just a sign of a little blood in the milk and is usually nothing to worry about, even with the bacteria they still reccomend to continue breastfeeding because there are no adverse reactions unless baby is premature 🤷♀️
@@kristinowens899 breastmilk adjusts itself to what the baby needs, or how the mom is doing. For example. If the mom is sick with a cold. The breastmilk will adjust itself to have more antibodies to protect the baby and also that changes the color. Or if the baby is sick let's say with the flu the baby's saliva will "alert" the cells in the breastmilk and it will change to what the baby needs. It helps transfer antibodies and immunity to the baby and depending on what color it is could tell you how the baby is OR if the mother herself is sick or has issues such as mastitis, an infection, stress, ect.
As a father to 2 boys i know the anxiety & sleepless nights when they where I'll , though both myself & wife are working parents & I travelled long distances with very little sleep neither of us cud sleep knowing our kids where in pain , I speak of the basic stuff compared to what Brookes parents went thru. I just hate it when kids go thru these diseases & trauma - it's not fair ! Hope she does well in life.
Why didn't they diagnose serratia marcescens sooner than they had because had they done it that mother would not have had to come close to dying before getting diagnosed
About the first born - second born things. I think it's actually the opposite way. But I might say that because me and my older sister are like that. She always wants to be the middle of attention, and I'm basically in her shadows. But it's personality difference too.
Yeah, it's hard to stereotype children in the order that they're born in, it's usually different with every family. It can get a little more tricky, too, when half siblings are involved.
If a milked cow is put on antibiotics the milk is discarded during that time and a week afterwards as 'not safe for human consumption' so I don't understand why if she was on antibiotics the baby could still have the milk, surely the medication would come through her milk and into the baby.
I had mastitis it is very painful and I actually pumped to try and produce milk cause I was struggling and ended up pumping blood in the milk. My pediatrician also told me to feed it to my baby. I didn't though I just tossed it and stopped pumping dealt with the mastitis and put my boy on formula.
I know parenting is difficult, but waiting 2 weeks to get your toddler seen about when her walking is strange and complaining of pain... I would've waited a day at most. :/
Can I just say I've had a lumber puncher (the thing were they get spine tissue) when I was younger and they only gave me skin numbing cream. It was sooo painfull that I cant explain it was like someone stabbed me I'm older know but still I wanna cry thinking about it and I now have a fear of pain killer but in the sense they make the pain worse. I still feel that the hospital did something wrong and they even gave me some dumb tablit like give me proper pain killer not a game of agario
I haven’t finished the article yet so maybe the answer is coming, but breast cancer wouldn’t explain the formula turning pink too would it? Oh, got it. Lol
after watching like 40 episodes of this show in a row: tell the patient it's cancer (it's not), tell the patient they need to gain/loose weigt (maby they do but it's not the main l issue),becuse they don't know whats erong so either you fake it or you are mentaly ill (it's not). Patient goes home and find the awser on the internet, ends up beeing a really rare illness that some one hasn't come across in their 30 year job as a doctor.
The Doc that told her to give her child the pink breastmilk needs to lose her license. That's ridiculous! You know something's wrong with it and don't know what, so why the heck would you give that to your child? Don't do that...
why not give her an mri then they can see if its the muscle or tendons or something likr that my dad was in a lot of pain and he wenrt for an mri and he has arthritis soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
So not a SINGLE doctor suggested TESTING the milk? What a bunch of quacks.

Hahahaha right and the doctor can say it five more times with no problem I’ve always thought that was funny!
Lol. You should see/hear some of the tongue twisters we get in the pharmacy.
I think they just throw darts at the alphabet to name diseases, conditions even script meds.
I went what what
Russell or muscle? They just misheard her 😂
Hannah Lindsay I thought it's wrassle, with a silent w
Romackadam Bäckenstein maybe that was it idk 😂
I thought she must have heard the word bustle referring to the hip, like on tv or something.
I think it would be obvious what she was trying to say. I mean come on, she's grabbing her hip, saying her "russel" hurt, which sounds almost exactly like muscle!!
I just can't believe they never made the connection!! It's like - Duh!! Hello!! You can't figure this out?!?!
"I've never seen bright pink breast milk. Feed it to the baby anyways."
Excuse me, what? Uh, no. No thanks
It really makes me angry when people dismiss kids clearly in pain and not feeling well because they’re kids and “being dramatic” Little kids don’t fake things or lie well at all.
i was waiting for the parents to go to doctor they took a long time 🙄
Sir Novak I tell you the moment my child walked wired I will be the next minute at the doctors office
Two weeks is far too long. "Intense pain" that makes a child walk funny is not "growing pains". I'm a little angry with the parents for letting it go for two weeks.
I dont understand why they told her to keep nursing the baby with mastitis and pink milk! Or why they didnt test the milk immediately. If there is mastitis the baby can get infected if there is infection
If a child is nursing it can help mastitis and the pink could be due to blood form the mastitis. Was most likely the doctors thoughts
@@elktheindianspotteddeer1331 it's normal if it's a hint of pink but not bright pink
i know right! mik from cows with mastitis is not considered safe for consumption but go ahead and give human mil to a baby... no problem...
A calf can still nurse off of its momma cow if it has mastitis in fact it is encouraged or for them to be milked every 2 hours just like it is encouraged for a human with mastitis to keep breast feeding or pumping every 2 hours to help brake up the clots but yes it is not safe for a human to drink cow milk from a cow with mastitis
This video is giving me so much anxiety & I'm only about 7 minutes in... 😰 this scares me so badly, anyone else???
Me too, yet I feel compelled to watch just in case.
Yeah, I'm always anxious about what are they going to show
I'm a little put off by Brooke's parents saying _what happened to my life_ and describing how the hour they had to wait for MRI results was such torture.... Poor little thing had to go two weeks before y'all even took her to the doctor. Why wouldn't they be talking about what happened to _Brooke's_ life? How will it affect _Brooke_ ??? I dunno.
AliEvaMari Exactly, I wish we could hear from Brooke how she felt in all this, like what she remembers
I was instantly uncomfortable when the mom kept talking about HER life and feelings, not one lil blurb about how Brooke felt 😭
Agreed! These parents are offputting and I don't agree with how they handled it. Very odd!
Fully agree.
There was another case where the mother ignored her daughter pain because the doctors told her she was fine. When they found out she was actually in pain the mother was so remorseful, she couldn't stop talking about how terrible she felt and how terrible her daughter must have felt. This mother showed 0 remorse.
Poor mum! Breastfeeding isn't as easy as everyone thinks it is. The doctors at first probably thought it was some blood as mums call their doctors and breastfeeding consultants concerned about "pink" Milk. Wish these doctors took this case abit more serious. Happy the family is better off now.
True but you would culture the breast milk anyways just to rule out. You don't make assumptions in medicine that is why it was missed.
Rinsuki I absolutely agree 100% but it does happen unfortunately.....we hear about it often in our Mum group. BUT fortunately there is a big movement in breastfeeding which is great !!! There are more studies, more breastfeeding consultants and more breastfeeding volunteers that are helping,hearing and supporting breastfeeding mums/parents.
It's fine if the milk has a HINT of pink from the blood but if it's bright pink it's obviously won't be from the blood
What kind of dad saying she's faking it
Same person that has check your engine light on says the car was faking it...
Point is, they probably dont want to spend money
Brooks symptoms sound so much like mine that I thought she had the same disease as me which is Gauchers Disease. Im so happy they diagnosed her in time,
The moment my child walks wired I would bring her straight to the doctor.
Yes!! Finally a new episode of Mystery Diagnosis!
Anyone else thinking of strawberry milk or pepto bismol.?
THAT POOR LITTLE GIRL
It a shame kids have to deal with much illness this young in her life.
🤦🏻♀️ oh my days. If my dog has a funny nose I panic and he goes to the vet! And the Doctors 🙄
Doctors spend so many years training but this mum knew what to do, without any training!
YES! RELIABLE SOURCE OF MYSTERY DIAGNOSIS!
I would’ve stopped feeding the kid pink milk and probably would’ve pressed it
Poor Brooke..sweet child.
Wonder if her pump was infected?
Would depend on if it was a closed or open sytem. Some brands have membranes that close the tubes and motor off from becoming exposed to any moisture that would come from the breast. Other brands dont. In either way tubes to bottles would need to be replaced in my opinion.
I'm kind of mad at the first pair of parents. What toddler that age fakes pain for that long? Children that age don't have an attention span long enough to fake pain for longer than a day maybe.
And if you're child isn't even playing like they used to and struggles to pick up a toy then that's a red flag. Never seen a child that age take it that far.
Exactly! Parents were in denial, they took way too long to take her.
Yo. That second family needs to sue the life out of everybody. Wth.
Breast Milk : *Turns pink*
American Doctors : “Nothing to worry about, let your baby drink it, no need to test it”
Oh this just makes me feel so awful. I just hate when kids are hurting. Poor little girl. Three is just too little for that.
Breastmilk comes in all different shades. It can be green, orange, blue, brownish, and pink. Pink breastmilk is usually just a sign of a little blood in the milk and is usually nothing to worry about, even with the bacteria they still reccomend to continue breastfeeding because there are no adverse reactions unless baby is premature 🤷♀️
green and blue breastmilk? Where?
Also why??
@@kristinowens899 breastmilk adjusts itself to what the baby needs, or how the mom is doing. For example. If the mom is sick with a cold. The breastmilk will adjust itself to have more antibodies to protect the baby and also that changes the color. Or if the baby is sick let's say with the flu the baby's saliva will "alert" the cells in the breastmilk and it will change to what the baby needs. It helps transfer antibodies and immunity to the baby and depending on what color it is could tell you how the baby is OR if the mother herself is sick or has issues such as mastitis, an infection, stress, ect.
Also foods you eat can also change it to strange colors
my cousin had LCH when he was younger and he's been like... i think almost 10 years LCH free!
Im happy that the little girl is alright
As a father to 2 boys i know the anxiety & sleepless nights when they where I'll , though both myself & wife are working parents & I travelled long distances with very little sleep neither of us cud sleep knowing our kids where in pain , I speak of the basic stuff compared to what Brookes parents went thru. I just hate it when kids go thru these diseases & trauma - it's not fair ! Hope she does well in life.
Thanks Dr Eric
I was wondering when another MD episode was gonna come out!
Those first parents should not be allowed to have kids. When a kid constantly says they are in pain you take it seriously.
So glad brooks doing great ❤️
me after watching this and gets a pain in my back: 0_0
Lol
Hahaha same

Why didn't they diagnose serratia marcescens sooner than they had because had they done it that mother would not have had to come close to dying before getting diagnosed
About the first born - second born things. I think it's actually the opposite way. But I might say that because me and my older sister are like that. She always wants to be the middle of attention, and I'm basically in her shadows. But it's personality difference too.
Yeah, it's hard to stereotype children in the order that they're born in, it's usually different with every family. It can get a little more tricky, too, when half siblings are involved.
For lch wouldn't high levels of antihistamines help control it?
I also had growing pains util they cut out of 19 cm diameter tumor out of me.
Don't worry it's strawberry nesquik 😏😏😏🤣🤣🤣🤣
If a milked cow is put on antibiotics the milk is discarded during that time and a week afterwards as 'not safe for human consumption' so I don't understand why if she was on antibiotics the baby could still have the milk, surely the medication would come through her milk and into the baby.
They were just trying to raise breast cancer awareness.
Brooke is such a cute little kid that's so sad that nobody took her seriously
Dramatic B L I N K
I had mastitis it is very painful and I actually pumped to try and produce milk cause I was struggling and ended up pumping blood in the milk. My pediatrician also told me to feed it to my baby. I didn't though I just tossed it and stopped pumping dealt with the mastitis and put my boy on formula.
That's a smart choice. Formula is a perfectly healthy option and swallowing the blood could have upset your child's stomach.
* blinks dramatically *
love how they kept saying was with brook. like she died or somthing
“Hi doctor my little girls right hip is hurting”
“Okay let’s check her abdomen instead.”
the transitions hurts my eyes bruh
but why did the formula turn pink too??? I'm confused
Because the baby contracted the bacteria and contaminated the bottles of formula with the bacteria in his saliva
Is something wrong with Kelly’s neck, she’s always tilting her head to the side
She also moves her lower jaw in an odd way when she speaks
Interesting how the narrator says the word vertebrae.
I know parenting is difficult, but waiting 2 weeks to get your toddler seen about when her walking is strange and complaining of pain...
I would've waited a day at most. :/
Can I just say I've had a lumber puncher (the thing were they get spine tissue) when I was younger and they only gave me skin numbing cream. It was sooo painfull that I cant explain it was like someone stabbed me I'm older know but still I wanna cry thinking about it and I now have a fear of pain killer but in the sense they make the pain worse. I still feel that the hospital did something wrong and they even gave me some dumb tablit like give me proper pain killer not a game of agario
*Lumbar puncture
"Lumber puncher" 🤣🤣
Parents a,ways say their kids are sassy little things, when they're naughty kids....lol
I haven’t finished the article yet so maybe the answer is coming, but breast cancer wouldn’t explain the formula turning pink too would it?
Oh, got it. Lol
Never heard it called a russel 😂 but I shall from this day forth refer to it as my russel
Me too! 😂
after watching like 40 episodes of this show in a row: tell the patient it's cancer (it's not), tell the patient they need to gain/loose weigt (maby they do but it's not the main l issue),becuse they don't know whats erong so either you fake it or you are mentaly ill (it's not). Patient goes home and find the awser on the internet, ends up beeing a really rare illness that some one hasn't come across in their 30 year job as a doctor.
The Doc that told her to give her child the pink breastmilk needs to lose her license. That's ridiculous! You know something's wrong with it and don't know what, so why the heck would you give that to your child? Don't do that...
I want to see additional Btritians great benefits handouts!!! These videos are great!!!
Do we have any updates on Brooke? 👀 Someone knows anything?
She has an Instagram page.
Why would the doc say they’ve never seen anything like it but keep feeding it to baby? Didn’t even suggest running tests on the milk either..
wait so people come to you, say they feel weird, and you don't even run simple blood tests for them?
This cameraman has a serious eye fetish.
My Russle hurts. LOL. Kids are funny
I need that probiotic Kelly used!! Maybe it will help with autoimmune diseases
Most of your MD episodes are blocked in america
why not give her an mri then they can see if its the muscle or tendons or something likr that my dad was in a lot of pain and he wenrt for an mri and he has arthritis soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Ghostie they do an MRI at 11:00
I don't know why the parents didn't take her to the doctors after they first noticed her walking funny.....
I can't believe nobody thought to culture the milk for so long...
I’m sorry, but when I think of mastitis, I think of a cow!
Marie Katherine Any mammal with breast tissue can get mastitis.
Moostitis.
@@rowanwinters8295 😂😂
My Rustle hurt's every now and then, I think it's just old age for me though.. ;-)
Doctor says..."growing pains?" Is there such? Except for teething and wisdom tooth?
any adult lch patient?
My leg hurts since 2nd grade and it still hurts and I am in 5th grade, I can not run if I try to run my leg will hurt more and more
