Hi all, on BabyCenter (a popular site geared for pregnant and new moms),
they have a weekly poll.  The current poll is "Was your baby allergic to
his formula?".  At the time when I answered and viewed the results, they
were as follows: 30% said Yes, their baby was allergic to a formula, 15%
said No,  38% said they were Not Sure (so all this time they are feeding
their child something they are "not sure" the child is allergic to?), and
15% said I Breastfed.

I am continue to be amazed by the general American view that formula
feeding is healthy and safe and almost the same as breastfeeding.

The poll and results are at http://www.babycenter.com/poll/9335.html
