Thinking about feeding your baby infant formulas?  You'll need to weigh the consequences.  While it is true that some women cannot breastfeed, that percentage is very small. 

Most women use infant formulas out of convenience, but when is something convenient  that costs thousands of dollars extra per year and contains hazardous chemicals?
Chemical explosions have been linked to infant formulas, and they have recently been found to contain rocket fuel chemicals. 
Now more about the cost of infant formulas.  By simply feeding your baby the recommended ounces of infant formula per day, by the time your baby is 4 months old you will have spent $1,037.26 on infant formulas alone.  That is not including the cost of bottles, nipples, bottle sanitizers, and bottled water. 
By the time your baby is 12 months old, you will have spent $3,163.86 on the manufactured infant formula.  That is enough money to take your family on a week long vacation, buy a nice home computer, pay off debt, and many other things.  Ouch.
By the way, you'll also need to set aside money to pay for that gym membership to help you loose the baby weight that breastfeeding naturally and effortlessly does.
