Remember parents, don't believe a word of the "benefits" of bottle feeding. Baby food is a billion dollar market. Baby food was not invented with the health of the child in mind, but rather to tap the largest business potential. Just imagine the size of a never ending market. These companies like Nestle are still fighting law suits in courts for allegations of falsely promoting baby food as the healthy. They have enough of money to see that such news does not reach mainstream media. Use your common sense. Bottled milk did not exist 100 or so years ago. Just look back and see our grandfathers were the healthiest lot. Todays kids are literally drug dependent.(forget about USA there are studies which say that life expectancy 100 years ago and before was only 29 years. Can you believe that atleast we Indians and japanese know that our forefathers used to cross 100 years in lifespan) The statement given my this site is false and bogus. there is not commercial formula which can even come close to mothers milk. You am me should fight against such misinformation. We should email the owner of this website and make them remove this statement. Mothers milk is the best. Commercial foods are dead. they are devoid of any nutrients and contains the cheapest of ingridients. If you want shortcuts of want to get back to "normal" life at the cost of your childs health then dont be a mother. On the comment about lactose intolerance. Have you noticed that lactose intolerance is only in western countries. Why because they have started feeding their babies(and themselves) harmful poisons years ago. It is just a matter of time before India starts seeing such "intolerances" in their kids. If these companies have their way. For the love of your child, take some pains. There are not shortcuts to good parenting.

Bottle gives flxibilty and keps baby's tumy full. Both breasfeeding and bottle fedeing should go together. I am suffering since my baby does not accept bottle anymore. I can't leave home for more than half an hour due to this. Not only me, but my baby also suffers since he nver has his tummy full. Mothers milk is limitd in supply and digest very fast. So if u are ready to be breastfeeding for 14 hrs in a day thn don't opt for bottle, else give her bottle atleast once in a day.

unless you are eating all organically grown foods aren't you transferring all those chemicals to the baby too when he feeds?? what about moms on special meds? should they breast feed too?? sometimes i think formula is best.

You mothers are fucking nuts, sure breast feeding is great, helps alot of things, but what about the father. He cant feed the baby, ever think that maybe not having lactose in the milk is a good idea. I have been lactose intolerant all my life, and if it wasnt for bottles id be dead. So dont just think about the babys of the world who can just eat what the mother puts out, MOTHERS MILK IS NOT ALWAYS THE BEST!!!!

This website helped me with my college work for BND Child Care. A great help when looking at the disadvantages and advantages in bottlefeeding, and i do come to the conclusion that THE MOTHERS MILK IS ALWAYS BEST! Thanks

My baby is a year old now and I completely avoid the bottle. The doctor has asked me not to take chances. Because the strilization may not be 100% perfect. But no mother would deliberately not want to give her child the best. Breat feeding or bottle feeding, we moms must be careful, cautious and clean.

I exclusively breastfed my daughter 7 years ago for the first 6 months of her life, took prenatal vitamins and iron supplements. I continued after 6 months with cereal and other solids. My baby was hospitalized four times before her second birthday. She had colic from 6 weeks to 4 months old and, although she rarely had an ear infection, she had colds, like other kids at daycare. To any new mother thinking of breastfeeding, who thinks her child is "protected" from illness, hospital stays, or colic, think again. Your choice to nurse, needs to be a personal decision. I do not know what would have happened, if I had bottlefed...very true, but I can say this was my own experience. Take it for what it's worth.

...I do breastfeed and I feel strongly about it because I researched BOTH OPTIONS and came up with what I felt was the best feeding method. I'm sorry that our passion on this subject is overshadowing the facts. Are any formula feeding moms actually saying that formula is just as good as breastmilk? It's not. Now, breast isn't best. Breastmilk is simply what human babies are supposed to have. It's not special or magical. Formula is man-made and while it is considered sufficient, it isn't just as good. Formula was made for babies who couldn't have breastmilk. Unfortunately the formula companies have really put a good spin on their product so that it is seen by millions of women as a perfectly acceptable choice. I think that's a shame but I don't think these women are worse parents for it. Just uninformed. I don't think I'm better than anyone, but I am not going to get all upset with those who have a different view than mine. That would indicate that I am not secure in my choice to give my child the nutrition that God/Mother Nature intended him to have. Thanks!

I think the person who has written this article is not very well informed concerning bottle-feeding.Though bottle feeding may not contain the antibodies etc which breast milk may have,yet there are plenty of advantages for bottle feeding,especially for the working mom.Also not all mothers can breast feed as they may not have enough milk or like some mothers whose babies have infections after delivery and have to be bottlefed while in hospital as later the babies dont latch on so easily to the breast and saying that formula has no advantages is talk only from narrow minded people

It is certainly a very crafty choice of words when they say that 'formula comes closest to breastmilk'. What is this relative to when they say it is closer or closest. Where is it in absolute terms? No Formula manufacturer will talk aobut things they know are missing from Formula but are present in breaskmilk. There are hundreds of nutrients and other things present in breastmilk which the Formula can never have. Breast milk is 'live', Formula is not.

Breastmilk matures the gut, it also protects against (further) infection, premature or sick babies can be fed it in the same way as they would feed formula yet they could also benefit from its protective effects. Studies show that preterm mothers milk is different to full term mothers milk to suit the childs needs. Accessing breastmilk is premature or sick infant Formula manufacturers have convinced us that premature or sick infants require these products. This is wholly misleading, and they know it. The information is out there on the web, avoid commercial sites and you will find it.

I agree that there is no comparison for breast milk. Realize this, there are mothers with premature babies or feeding problems. Formula has worked well in such cases.

'Now some commercial formulas are considered as good as mother’s milk':this statement is misleading and incredibly inaccurate. The only people who would claim such nonsense are the unscrupulous, parsimonious manufacturers of such an incredibly inferior product. To mothers: please disregard this statement and search for more accurate, legitimate information elsewhere on the net.

No formula compares to breastmilk. When they say they are 'now even closer to breastmilk' think about the crafty choice of words! I would advise all your readers to consider very carefully their choice of infant feeding. Research on the web if they remain uncertain.

There is no formula that is "considered as good as mother’s milk." Even the most advanced formula available falls very short of imitating mother's milk. You may want to consider re-stating that sentence because it is not true. Mother's milk is a living substance. Formula is heavily processed dead matter.

Bottlefeeding should be avoided as far as possible. Mother's milk is the best.
