    I know thats only too true, I'm married to a mummies boy! But I think its great.

    Don't laugh but the thought that went through my head was that I'll never be the mother of the bride. I'm blaming the hormones!!

    Link to the governments reccomendation on making up infant feeds. Ideally you should make up each feed individually and only make bottles on advance where individual feeds are not practical (ie taking your baby to a care setting)

    In my opinion it is better to read all the information and follow the guidelines. A baby in Belgium died after contracting Enterobacter sakazakii (which is heat resistant) from formula milk. His parents sued the manufacturer of the milk but the case was dismissed as the judge said every parent is aware of the risks... As far as I am aware, parents aren't made aware of the risks otherwise artificial feeding rates would be lower than they are.

    I don't get involved in breastfeeding vs artificial feeding debates because it is not my aim to make people feel guilty by the choices they make. Mothers have enough to feel guilty about, society piles it on us at every opportunity... We all try to do the best for our babies and my personal opinion (and through the training I've had) breastfeeding is the only way for me to feed my children.
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Thanks Krystal :D
    You've just reminded me do you know if there is somewhere to find out where/if there are any local milk banks?
