Everyone has heard that breast is best for baby, but there are times when regardless of best intentions formula is essential. For example, mom doesn’t have enough milk, has multiples, mom is unable to pump at work, etc. For me, breastfeeding was not an option due to medication that I am on due to Epilepsy. As much as I longed to breastfeed my babies I was unable to for both the safety of the baby and myself.
On those occasions, it is important for new moms (like myself) to get the best value for our dollar, while also safe guarding our baby’s health. Believe me I know how expensive formula is and I know how it feels to buy those cans of formula and debate whether store brand is “just as good” as the name brands. Well. according to the 10th edition of Consumer Reports Best Baby Products, store brand formula is as nutritious for babies as nationally advertised brands. There are even coupons available for store brand formulas here if you are interested.
You may be wondering why I am bringing this up? Well, as of October, a new Woman, Infants, and Children’s (WIC) program initiative designed to promote breastfeeding reduces infant-formula subsides by up to 26% so parents who previously had most of their formula paid for by WIC may now have to purchase formula on their own. This is an issue close to my heart both because I had to solely formula feed my children by no choice of my own and because I work in a very low income area of Los Angeles where when woman needs to use the WIC program I would hope they would have every available feeding option available to their babies. Since I know sometimes breastfeeding is not always an option.
