Ok, we need to get back to debating - so I typed "formula is evil" into Google & found most were saying,

>>>>Probably the fact that in the US clean water is readily available and we (societal we) have come to accept ffing as "normal", while we see donor milk as "weird and exotic" (even though wet-nursing was quite common just a few generations ago). <<<<

Well the LLL and AAP don't have an issue with milk bank milk or pasteurization in general - only M2M donation. So the issue can't be "donor milk is weird and exotic" when it comes to the AAP's stance - because they aren't against all donor milk.

>>>>LOL. And 'that last one' was talking about (and I quote) "casual exchange of human milk". As in, not screening the other mom, and certainly not pasteurizing. A bit different than what I was discussing.<<<<<

I have seen things that say you can home pasteurize, here and on other sites, I assume the AAP and LLL knows home pasteurization is an option. Perhaps it's that milk banks also require blood tests from donor mom's and it's harder to have a process for that with M2M? Didn't someone suggest to Lee in this thread that she should be able to find some mom somewhere on her island to pump for her? That would clearly fall under "casual exchange of human milk" wouldn't it?

>>>That's why I like lv2read's arguments better ;) The child doesn't get to choose, but the child is the one who would pay more/be denied coverage. That totally sux. <<<<

You like her argument better and you think it sux? I'm confused how you like the one that sux better.

"Is there a blood test to see if someone was FF vs BF?"


Inspecting the gut is a sure fire way to tell, but rather a cumbersome test just to get coverage/a certain rate ;)

Again, I didn't call anyone "ignorant". Nice touch with the dictionary, but I.did.not.say.it.

Meh, I'm done arguing with you. I've never seen someone with such an axe to grind on a debate board. You really do seem to be looking for a fight. I hope you get whatever it is you're looking for, but you won't be getting it from me any longer.

Really, though...chill out.

>>>>But that doesn't mean it was "best" *for your baby*. It was "best" *for your situaiton*.<<<<

Yes, isn't this what I was saying too? Best in my situation, because of the factors of my situation.
