Dear Friends:
 
Jeanne describes my own reaction, back in the late 1980s. I never connected  
cow milk with formula and was shocked to learn the facts after reading  
Gabrielle Palmer's classic "The Politics of Breastfeeding" and Maureen Minchin's  
"Breastfeeding Matters" in the same week.
 
I was already a breastfeeding advocate then, had been for 10  years.  During 
that decade, I also was being  cautioned/warned/admonished not to favor 
breastfeeding over formula feeding in  my childbirth classes and my postpartum 
education, lest I disturb a mother that  had made a choice.
 
warmly,
Nikki Lee RN, MS, IBCLC, CCE, CIMI

I  brought up information about the source and design of formula - and  then,
following the outline asked "What, of what I've just mentioned,  surprised
you the most?  

The answer: "I didn't know formula  came from cow's milk!"
