I am not that daft....I actually *don't* think the formula manufacturers are in secret league with an international conspiracy to stupify the human race. But it is mighty convenient for a wide range of vested interests when women formula feed their infants instead of breastfeeding them, and for this reason, the move away from formula is a many-layered struggle. BTW, the other reason why rubbish goes out about bf on TV and in newspapers is the sheer laziness of some journalists (I speak from inside the job, remember!). There are some who take the easy way , every time....they don't question, they don't challenge, they look for the cheap thrill. Heather Welford Neil NCT bfc Newcastle upon Tyne
