All actress Alyssa Milano wanted to do with carry the “liquid gold” espressed breastmilk with her on the plane on the way to a romantic getaway with her husband today.
But the Mistresses alum, who gave birth to her second child, daughter Isabella last September 2014, was made to dump the milk when she traveled through Heathrow airport in London.
The airport only allows those traveling with their infant or baby to take more than 100 millileters of breast milk aboard a flight. Because the former child star of Who’s the Boss did not have her baby in tow, the airport officials threw the precious milk away.
She took to Twitter to complain.
Pumping on a plane is difficult. Small FYI.

(2 of 2) They said they would let the pumped milk through if I had the baby with me. Why would I need to pump if I had the baby with me????

.@HeathrowAirport Why can you test my toiletries to make sure they are safe but you have to throw away my breast milk?
