Hi,
>No one asks the other side of the question, is it OK to formula feed this baby?

Until you mention the magic words "formula anaphylaxis" :-^

When my second child was in NICU, I got nagged to death by the nurses to
give her a bottle of formula to "give me a break" (I can't pump to save
my life). So I casually mentioned that there had been a couple of cases
of formula anaphylaxis in my family. No one ever suggested formula
again! :-)
