After her baby was vaccinated, one mum's breast milk turned blue.
A British mum's phenomenal breastmilk transformation has gone viral after she shared photographs of milk samples which appeared to change color over several days this week.
The post has since gone viral, with thousands of people across the planet marveling at the capabilities of a woman's body to care forits young.
Birmingham mum-of-four Jody Fisher posted a photograph to her Facebook page on Thursday, sharing a truly incredible story about her body's reaction when her daughter, Nancy, was vaccinated this week.
Jody explained that she had expressed breastmilk the day before her daughter was immunized and it had been a completely "normal color".

You know that old myth that if a cow eats chocolate, it will produce chocolate milk?
That definitely does not apply to this phenomenon.
Jody responded to speculation that her breastmilk was simply a by-product of her diet, or an indication of the milk's fat content - saying her breastmilk is only ever blue if her daughter is sick.
"My milk isn't this colour from what I've eaten, I have not had anything artificially colored, no supplements and no green vegetables," Jody said.
According to Jody, her body's response to her daughter's injections proves that vaccines are doing their job of protecting the community.
"This goes to show the vaccines are doing exactly what they are meant to do, and so is my daughter's body and mine," Jody said.
"The whole point of vaccinations is to introduce a very, very weakened version of the virus or disease you want immunity from."
That way, Jody claimed, your body can make antibodies to heal itself.
"This in turn makes your body think you have already had the virus or disease so you won't get a more deadly, real version in the future," she said. Responding to hundreds of anti-vaccination messages, Jody instructed anti-vaxxers not to come to her page and preach that vaccinations are poisonous.
"I hope your children never becomes ill with anything serious or that they don't pass it on to a poor baby waiting to have their immunisations," she said.
