Sudden thought:
Perhaps all mothers who choose to feed ABM instead of breastfeed; or for
those who switch to formula before the baby is a year old should be
(required) encouraged to pump for two to three weeks just in case the baby is
intolerant to the formula. Then they wouldn't have to relactate!! :) I
mean, the docs encourage giving formula "just in case" and introducing
bottles early on "just in case." What about telling moms they need to keep
their milk supply up "just in case" there is a
tornado/hurricane/earthquake/blizzard/flood and they are unable to get fresh
water or ABM to feed their babies???
What a thought -- and wouldn't the pump companies LOVE me!! Tee hee....
