A Virginia Beach mom has donated about 12,000 ounces — or 94 gallons — of her own breast milk to 28 babies over the last year and a half, a report said.

Christina Resch started donating in 2018 to other moms seeking human milk when she realized she was producing too much to use or store in her stuffed fridges and freezers, WVEC reported.
