Dr. Oakley and Holly chat about the current baby formula situation and the difference between breast feeding and feeding babies’ formula. A nationwide shortage of baby formula is proving stressful for families. Mothers Milk Bank has been fielding more calls from people interested in donating breast milk due to the shortage. The milk bank serves families with a prescription for human breast milk, which means the organization prioritizes medically fragile babies. But the milk bank is also able to help others on a short-term basis. The FDA is taking emergency steps to increase the supply of baby formula after a plant closure led to shortages. Federal policy may have contributed to over-reliance on a handful of formula suppliers. Business Insider says Nestle is flying baby formula from Europe to the United States to help ease the baby formula shortage. The formula is coming from Switzerland and the Netherlands. Hopefully this will be resolved soon. Thanks to our fabulous sponsor: WE’RE SPILLING THE PEE ON UTIS!!!! Dr. Oakley loves and recommends Utiva to her patients and she takes it daily.
