being a slow reader, I am only now replying to J.Rachel Hamlet post regarding comparision on breast and formula milk. The Royal College of Midwives, Wales has a lovely card with this on it and points out that breastmilk has all the extra immunological properties, etc. Also gives the average intake per feed. The source is recognised, I can't find the address. also which is helpful. However, to be less helpful, I don't have the address to hand at the moment. I'll post it in a few days when I find it - sorry. Genevieve Becker Dept. of Health Promotion, University College Galway, Ireland
