Hi Lactnetters,
    I thought Laura Wright, in her recent message, used a highly appropriate verb in association with ABMs.  That verb was "administer".  Let's use it!  Talking about "feeding" a baby on ABM gives the nice warm impression of a suitable food.  "Administering" ABM to a baby removes this connotation, and suggests an abnormal state, or clinical situation, as in administering a drug.   Love it, Laura!
               Cheers,
                     Virginia
