<< the nurses at the hospital told the niece
that if she was planning to pump, she might as well just give formula
because when breastmilk is not given directly from the breast it loses all
of its good properties. >>
This is EXACTLY what was told to our nurses a year or so ago at an
"inservice" dinner given (off-site from hospital, mind you) by--who
else?!--M-J. They said 90% of antibodies were lost from storing milk, both
in the cooling process and on the sides of the bottles!!
NO research articles to back it up, mind you.........AARRGGHH
