I know this is going to offend a lot of people, but I am honestly just trying to understand why birth Mother/parents willingly choose formula over breastfeeding. I know many women and babies cannot breastfeed, and that is not what I am talking about here. I mean women who make milk when their babies are born, and choose to buy artificial milk and stick a plastic nipple in their baby’s mouth, instead of bringing baby to the breast to drink the special-made super duper healthy immune-boosting milk that our bodies make for our babies. Please enlighten me–it just seems so unbelievable that SO many people make this choice. AGAIN, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO CANNOT BREASTFEED, I AM TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO CAN BUT CHOOSE NOT TO.

can formula cause cancer in children?
I just saw on another site where someone posted that formula causes cancer. Now I know that breast fed babies, in studies, have shown less incidence of childhood cancer due to the breast milk boosting immune system and what not. But is there any evidence that formula itself actually causes childhood cancer? The site i saw it on was run ragged with women who didnt even seem to think it was ok to pump and bottle feed breast milk, ONLY feed right from the breast. So I dont know if they are just over zealous or making stuff up or what.
What is a good age to take a baby out into the public when they are being formula fed?
so i bought the new similac advance formula with easy grip but!?
i didnt notice this formula says it has early shield for immune support! he usually drinks the similac advance i thought it was the same one just in a different can but its not can i still give to him? because would be considered as changing formula or no? i cant mix it because he doesnt have any more of the other formula the only diference is that early shield so shouls i just give it to him with no change? any ideas?
