Formula Feeding
Whether you’re breastfeeding your baby and supplementing with formula or relying on formula exclusively, you’d probably like to know a little bit more about what you’re feeding your infant. The Babble Formula Feeding Guide offers information and advice on everything from how to begin to what supplies you’ll need to how to choose the right formula for your baby. You may also want to be reassured that formula isn’t poison, no matter what some other moms might tell you. And you may want to know that breastfeeding isn’t always cheaper than formula, if you sit down and work through the math. Or you may just want support from a fellow formula-feeding mom, who won’t apologize for her choice. You’ll find all of that and more here.
