Regarding Vicky's request for references related to ABM causing intestinal
bleeding and thus more iron... The majority of formula's sold in the US are
cow's milk based. "Breastfeeding: A Guide for the Medical Profession"
(Lawrence & Lawrence 1999) states on p. 495: "Sullivan221 has reviewed the
subject of cow's milk induced intestinal bleeding in infancy.221"
221 Sullivan, P.B. Cow's milk induced intestinal bleeding in infancy. Arch
Dis Child 68:240, 1993.
