Good point, Nikki. The problem is, that seeing this article, mothers
started throwing out any milk they had stored longer than 48 hours and began giving
-- guess what -- FORMULA because they thought it was better than
breastmilk....
We KNOW that milk directly from mom's breast to baby's mouth/tummy is best.
What is next best is mom's own milk given as closely to the time it is
pumped as possible. What is third best is mom's own milk given regardless of when
it was pumped. What is fourth best is donor milk. What is fifth best
is......Synthetic Infant Nutrition with its pathetic store of antioxidants and
zero store of antibodies and DHA made from pond scum.....
