Quote HistoryQuoted: My wife's production was not good and my second son, true to his nature now, was a lazy bastard that would latch and fall asleep rather than suck. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: If only there was another, natural, limitless, healthier option out there then formula  My wife's production was not good and my second son, true to his nature now, was a lazy bastard that would latch and fall asleep rather than suck. My wife also had a very hard time producing and our baby had a difficult time getting latching down. Our Dr even recommended we just switch to formula. Her weight is great and she's progressing ahead of the curve |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Sure there are some people with genuine issues. There are many more who just gave up and use formula for convenience. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: FFS... Moms who have PCOS, mastectomies, or have to work full time job and aren't able to pump at work, people who adopted, moms who had their supply interupted by an emergecy or medical prodecure and their supply didn't come back, premature babies who need to eat before milk comes in, babies with certain alleries, the list goes on and on. Not everyone has the luxury of breastfeeding. Infant mortality rates were 10 times higher before formula existed. This is not my wife's case at all, but even if it was, what the fuck does it matter how a mother chooses to feed her baby? |

As others have stated, it's damn sure not always a choice. Definitely wasn't for my wife. She was heart broken when we had to switch fully to formula. I will never understand the crazy stigma behind formula fed babies. It's absolutely insane to me |

When you have to look to fedgov to solve market problems, you're full-on socialist/communist/fascist.
In a free country, the market would fix this regardless of the actions of tyrants in DC. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The democrats are really really fucking themselves when they starve women’s babies. If they don’t get completely slaughtered in the mid terms then we’ll have confirmation that the dominion fix is real. I can’t keep this straight. They fire up their base by ripping babies out of the womb/assuring women’s right to do so, but are going to get slaughtered for starving them? But yes, the Dominion fix is real, among other methods. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: A majority of these women don't have these issues. Please stop with the bull shit. They don't want to breastfeed because opening a can is easier You'd be surprised. Our first child had no problem but the other three refused to breastfeed and were losing weight. It got to the point if she wasn't crying the baby was or both. In consulting the doctor we learned it is not unusual. Baby formula has been around for over a hundred years. A lot of babies have grown up a lot healthier for it. |

Biden is a fucking retard, does that help? I am just trying to dispell the myth that mothers who don't/can't breastfeed are lazy. Saying that is just as ignorant as saying gun owners are irresponsible. Some are and some aren't, plain and simple. My wife has been breastfeeding non stop for 1.5 months but we still need to supplement with formula. And I'm sick of people telling me "there is another option" because there fucking isn't. |

There is a difference between mothers who can't breastfeed and those that are just to lazy to put in the effort. We have 4 kids and a couple of them were nightmares with breastfeeding and we did at times have to work in formula. There is a good percentage of women who use something as an excuse or are just to lazy to stick with trying though when there is such an easy out as an alternative. |

If you read between the lines on the official press releases from the stake holders on this issue….. I’m going with there was some real world class horse fuckery going on.
The sanitary floors and surfaces comment struck me as a very odd thing to say. In this thread it’s also super obvious who has actually had to deal with raising babies and who hasn’t. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I was told via some mommy groups that if you select Canada as a source on Amazon their stock is better and you can order via that route. Not sure how true it is but if you're in need give that a try. Thankfully (because of this and for my wallet) my son should be weaning off formula this month. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Just doesn't add up that with so many Universities and so much equipment across the country that babies are just supposed to starve. All these experts are they actually capable of anything? The same people saying there were no treatments for COVID short of ventilators are now telling you under no circumstances use homemade formula. They have to maintain control. What they don't understand is that it would be more productive to tell people that breast milk or formula is the optimal choice, but if they are unavailable this formula (recipe) will work as an interim solution. The current mantra of use formula or starve doesn't give confidence in official medical advice. |

Have you been watching the news. Everyone tells you not to make your own baby formula. They specifically talk about all the old recipes floating around on the internet. In the 30s, infant mortality was about 60 per 1,000 live births now it is 6 per 1,000. Modern formula came into use in the 80s. The problem is that you don't know who to believe. These are the same people that told us not to treat COVID until it was in an advanced stage. I'm sure formula is the optimal solution but homemade may be ok for an interim solution. If they don't recommend a solution to feed your baby they are part of the problem. Look at the mortality tables. Table LOOK!!! it's the kungflu guy that has all the answers.... Did you get banned from that thread? Asking for a friend....... |
