    Dumb questions from a guy (me) who has worked with kids, help raise nephew who were past infancy, but never had kids of my own:  Why is there so much widespread need for baby formula?  Is breast feeding that uncommon today?
    My wife had to stop taking her arthritis medication to breast feed. So she did it for a few weeks before getting back on and switching to the bottle. 
    My brother and his wife adopted 2 girls from infancy, took them home from the hospital when they were days old. They long-term fostered others as well. She obviously was unable to breast feed.
    There are lots of reasons why. There’s some a stigma unfortunately, I’ve overheard parents at parks criticizing formula, almost like it’s due to laziness or something. But there’s lots of valid reasons why.

    I hope no one read any attempt or intention on my part to stigmatize women for feeding their babies formula.  That is not the case at all.

    Breastfeeding is an important intervention not just for the health of the baby but also the mother as well. Unfortunately, breasfeeding rates in the USA are lower than almost all other high-income countries, probably due to the completely inadequate maternity leave provisions for most jobs, often requiring women to return to work by the time the baby is 6 weeks old. There are other reasons as well, including lack of widespread support for breastfeeding, but that's probably the major one.

    One thing to remember about the formula shortage, though, it that it isn't just a shortage of regular formula for healthy term infants, it also includes shortages of a wide range of specialty formulas for infants and young children with various medical conditions that require specialized diets. Often these formulas need to be given beyond infancy into the toddler and preschooler years because the child can't absorb nutrients from other foods, and in many cases would not have been able to absorb nutrients from breastmilk either. 

    Very helpful/ informative response, thank you!

    We are totally screwed for the mid terms - no doubt we lose the house and senate.  This won't happen, but the only way to save 2024 is do what Clinton did and admit where things went wrong and come towards the middle.  Clinton did an amazing job is damage control and therefore saved 96 for the Dems. It's the crazy far left 5% of our party that is killing us as this is what the press and the right is exploiting (and the majority of Americans are against).  We need to get back to the party we were in the middle left and not make everything a fuck Trump issue - he isn't president and wont be again.  


    What are the crazy far left ideas of the 5% that are so bad that Americans don't agree with?

    1)  The perception we are soft on crime (see Gascon, Chesa Boudin).   It's an election killer.  
    2)  The perception parents should have no say in what is taught in the classroom.  It single handedly lost Virginia for us.

    1) soft on crime...Jesus are we still here.  If you want unaccountable police and no chance at rehabilitation might as well vote for R
    2) I'm not sure that anyone even to the left of Ilhan Omar, AOC, Cori Bush is saying or has ever said that.  If you are buying that the Far left doesn't want parent's to have a say in education, I would suggest shopping elsewhere.

    It’s all the illegal criminals the far left allows to walk through the wide open, unlocked door at the border when they should be closing and locking not only that door but all the doors in our nation’s schools.

    You don’t know me very well, then. Which is fine, you’re entitled to your opinion.
