This mom could also point out to the day care providers that urine and feces are body fluids -- one's that can be infective! Especially the feces. They have to deal with those every day, unless they never change diapers. Breast milk is anti-infective!! On the other hand, the mom could just bring in bottles and tell them it is formula. Are they going to do a laboratory analysis???? Finally, cows' milk formula is a "body fluid" also -- the body in question just happens to be bovine, instead of human. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Katherine A.
