The best food for a new born in mother's milk and the products which claim that they can provide a total substitute of mother's milk are jusk faking around. There are vital nutrients which are produced in a lady's milk during lactation period and those nutrients can not be made artificially.

A no-no to that claim! Breastfeeeding is still and will always be the best milk for babies up to 2 years. It enhances bonding realtions between the mother and the child as well.

I believe that bottle is just as good as breast and that bonding can happen too while bottle feeding and alot of the formulas on the market now are full of nutrients, my 2 were bottle fed and turned out just fine.

It amazes me how peope always say well this happened for me and they turned out fine. Just because the kids turned out fine doesn't mean that they received the best, which I think everyone knows that breast is best.

Many children have suffered through not so great experiences but still turned out just "fine", but would you have wanted your child to experience it? It seems that mothers always try to justify not doing something that is best for their child, and more convenient to them, by saying well, I did it, and they turned out fine.

Breast feeding is the best. Breast milk is highly nutritious and gives high immunity power to child. No chance for contamination.....

I always say that " Mother's milk is the best milk for a child" we can't compare it with any other substitutes, they only fill the babies stomach with nutrients but can't share their love to the child while feeding, and causes contamination too.
Mother's milk atleast for 6months is best advised, afterwards can starty weaning off, and start semi-solids.

Moms who formula feed are not doing a disjustice to their children. I totally agree that breastmilk is the best. Formula will never be as good nutritionally for a child, but a mother can bond just as easily with her child giving him a bottle.

I have nursed both of my children (the youngest is almost 7 months old now) and to be honest... I AM TOO LAZY TO FORMULA FEED! Baby wakes up hungy, I put him in bed beside me, let him eat and fall back asleep. No mixing, heating, etc.

I've always heard that it's best to breast feed if you can, but it's not always easy. There are some mothers, like mine, who just aren't able to produce enough milk. My mom had to formula feed all of us, then mix her milk in with it when she was able to
