> "follow-up formulas" that were supposed to replace "real formula" at about 4 to 6 months. Ads even said things like "is your baby sitting up? Ready for solids?". They were cheaper than "real formula" and that was another selling point. Are these things still made? I don't see much advertising for them any more.< Perhaps this is because the US doesn't have a national law which limits advertising of formula to the public in the same way as some other countries. Here in the UK, where advertising formula intended for babies under 6 months of age is ILLEGAL, there are plenty of fierce adverts for follow-on milks -- because, aside from advertising the *product*, they advertise the *brand name*. Cunning, heh?
