It is true that mothers should give breast milk, but please remember that formula milk is not poison for infants, and posting articles like this will make those mothers who cannot breastfeed feel depressed and guilty. Infants on formula milk are as healthy and intelligent as those being given breast milk; it's a matter of genes. Also note that some babies require more than just breastfeeding due to their weight or height as compared to other infants their own age. Sarah Haider No one can downgrade the importance of breastfeeding infants. However, formula milk is a supplement, especially if your child has an extraordinary need for feeding or the mother is deficient in breast milk and does not have enough to satisfy her child or if the baby is born prematurely. Breastfeeding is a unique added bonus to the child's bonding with the mother. It increases immunity, but there is no need for guilt if one fails to breastfeed. Kim Lanny Educate doctors and nurses in hospitals. They are giving bottle milk to newborn babies and are not even bothering to ask permission or to tell about it. I am very disappointed with their attitude. Newborns should get their mother's milk first, not that of a cow! Nur Al Alam
