I think you’re safe buying things from authentic, original companies - though you may still encounter expiration/mill date issues, and you should have those clarified before purchase.
I wouldn’t buy food or medicines from a 3rd-party seller (’Marketplace’).
Such BS! My Mom Raised y kids on homemade formula!
Some women cannot breastfeed to adequately feed the baby. Homemade formula works great for this.
I can’t speak to shelf stocks myself, but my read is that the shortages are regional and inconsistent.
The linked article outlines somewhat of the manufactured crisis they created and - if the scuttlebutt on DHS buying up formula for distribution at the border is true - it dovetails nicely with the Disinformation Bureau’s efforts at distraction (it’s true purpose, imho, at least for now until it gets a juicy budget infusion).
This smacks of the Ivermectin crap.
I tried to breastfeed as long as I could. Milk wasn’t strong enough...but both babies got colostrum. I had to switch to bottle.
Sorry to hear that. Are there other online sources?
I don’t know what these doctors think the mothers should do when there is no formula available, let their child starve?
6 kids all raised on homemade Carnation evaporated milk and Karo syrup formula. I prepared my siblings bottles when my Mom had to work.
Yes it does mirror the ivermectin info shut down.
Hmm.
This is News You Can’t Use from the gaslight media. Do they try to tell you how to make passable formula in light of the shortage? No! “Don’t try to make it!” Rather than being helpful.
It’s what they do.
Decades ago, formula manufacturers were caught pushing their formula in third world countries encouraging women to use formula, often mixed with poor quality water.
This is about profits for formula manufacturers. Doctors take their cut. Follow the money.
Eh we’ve occasionally found some in stock at the local stores, and I usually buy stuff a bag/box or two ahead for anything we use consistently (formula, dog food, milk, OJ, etc), so we’re not really hurting much, just running off the last container sometimes instead of having an extra in stock.
Kiddo’s at six months though, so he’s getting more cereal/baby food, so formula usage is slowly dropping. Finished off the tiddy juice stores a couple weeks ago, so that hurt :/ Wife quit maybe two months ago cause she got mastitis a couple times, and she only had half the freezer full, so that only lasted until ~5 1/2 months.
Some of us old fogies should remember the days of evaporated milk and karo syrup. Nothing worse than the smell of evaporated milk spit up by the baby. Remarkable the millions of babies brought up on that recipe before today’s 30 dollar a can formula.
You know... what people did before gigantic companies told you to buy their stuff?
The media, worried that Roe V. Wade may make getting abortions a bit more difficult, now are advising that you starve them to death instead.
There is a hell of a lot of money to be made in the murder of infants. And those making it, as those getting the blood money and graft money in Ukraine. To Wit Politicians of both Political Parties are not about to give either one up without a heck of a fight.
Condensed milk and Karo syrup works,baby food too baby oatmeal too, I have one of my baby Dr’s list of how to make formula for me from 67yrs ago.
So does starving.
