And you're still thinking formula is just as good as breast milk...

OP isn't very bright.

+1 I knew OP was slow before I read the article -- who else would consider milk coming from her breasts to be her biggest accomplishment in life?

Shoot me the day I think anything relating to breast milk OR formula is "awesome!" It's FOOD.

Formula allowed my baby to avoid FTT and me to go back to work to earn a living! Without formula his brain would have suffered and our house would have been forclosed on, or we would have had to move him to low-quality childcare or a bad school district. So all in all I think formula was pretty good for his brain.

Super cool! Also cool that we have devised a product that meets the needs of both.

This isn't a contest.

I worked my butt off to maintain my supply and get through some nursing challenges. I'm a believer.

But...what's the point in insulting formula? What do you think you will accomplish? You just make yourself look petty.

Why did you stop so early with the first two? You should nurse the 2.5 yr old another five years so you can really gross the rest of us out.

Turns out boys and girls receive different amounts of nutrients from mom's milk. How awesome is that?

Where are the details regarding the study done on HUMANS?

I see the monkey study only.

The right breast is for the girl; the left is for the boy. Didn't you see the footnotes, PP?

At least that's how the monkeys worked it.

Why are you so harsh with PP? She's not even siding with OP. You, on the other hand, are just as critical, petty and stupid as OP.

Philosophically speaking I agree.

But donuts are awesome.

I get animal studies for lots of things, but in this case, where they're testing expressed milk, why wouldn't they do it on humans? It's not like it's an invasive test.
