US Woman Gets Into Guinness Book of Records Twice: All Thanks to Breast Milk

Alice Ogletree from Texas has been included in the Guinness Book of World Records for the second time.

It happened in July 2023, when she was 36 years old. The woman donated a record amount of breast milk twice.

She was first recognized as a record holder in 2014, when Alice donated 1,569 liters.

The second time she gave more than 2,645 liters of breast milk.

By this age, Ogletree had already become a mother three times.

She is raising two children – at the time the record was set, their ages were 7 and 12 years old.

The third baby is growing up in a family for which the woman became a surrogate mother.

Alice began donating her milk in 2010, when her first child was born.

It was then that the new mother discovered that she had so much milk - so much so that she had to throw it away.

At the hospital, the woman in labor was advised that she could donate the “extra” milk to a breast milk bank.

Interestingly, the World Records only counted the milk that Ogletree donated to the Mothers' Milk Bank in North Texas.

But, as the record holder herself claims, she gave another 2,000 liters to another bank and helped friends - of course, without counting. Ogletree's milk helped about 350 thousand babies.
