[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are just overgrown apes. What do you think the gorillas do? Formula the first week is a disaster - your body makes colostrum which isn't milk but still really necessary for your baby so giving formula is not a good idea. Just relax, let your body take over and embrace your inner gorilla. [/quote] Gorillas in the wild have a 30% infant fatality rate - sometimes as high as 50 -80%. If you're okay with a 1 in 3 chance of death for your kid, you're probably not a very good mother.[/quote] They don't die from lack of milk. There are lots of ways to die in the wild. [/quote] Actually, a lot of animals in the wild DO die from a lack of milk. That is why at zoos, sometimes they have to bottle a raise a baby animal even if there is a mother animal.[/quote]
