Good luck with your PBS appearance.  Just remember that breastfed babies
are NORMAL and artificially fed babies have LOWER levels of antibody to
vaccines.

Also, since breastfed babies are NORMAL, the slightly LOWER bilirubin
levels seen on average in artificially fed babies may mean that the
bilirubin is supposed to be there, and perhaps serves some
purpose we haven't discovered yet.....food for thought. ;-)
