I guess I missed this, but why was your milk no longer "safe?"

Considering I have a 2 year old and a 10 month old....


I don't get asked when I go to the doctor, but if I had GI problem, then I would think what I've been eating my whole life would be relevant.

>>>Once again, WHO is saying formula is "evil"?! I've not yet seen any BF'er in this thread say this!<<<<

Nobody said it in this thread, but it's in the OP. Is there not supposed to be a relationship between the OP and the resulting debate thread?

I'm fairly certain she was asking you who here has referred to formula as evil.

By a lot I meant is there enough M2M milk to meet the demand? More? Less? How does it work? How expensive is it?


I've only known M2M's to be strictly donation.

Medication I had to take, that was not safe and does transfer into bmilk where there was no alternative medication.

Well that's the thing, I have an immune disorder and I get asked a lot of questions. My treatment is considered a mixture of medication, stress management, diet and exercise. And I've never been asked what my mom fed me as an infant.

Yes but I thought we were discussing evilness because that's what the OP is about. Otherwise it probably wouldn't be coming up.

I have since read more about it (see previous links provided). It seems M2M milk is not recommended by AAP and others. At least not according to several sources I read (and posted for others to read).
