| The only thing I heard was that a long time ago Nestle sent minority countries formula to feed their babies with, and they didn't give them good water, so a lot of children died from drinking the formula because it had contaminated water in it. That's the last thing I heard about formula hurting babies, though. |

It was happening in bleeding China, but I believe has passed over even there. They were cheating on the protein content I think.

Uhm. If formula can kill your babies....and you cant breast feed or pump. wtf would you feed them? 
Breastfeeding and pumping are completely differet from formula... one's natural whereas the other is more of imitation of breastmilk. News article about topic: from CNN.com 
im aware that they are different. but seeing as i cant breast feed, and i cant pump my milk due to being on high dosages of antibiotics, what else would i feed my baby, if formula could "kill" him. my point being. i dont believe it. 
Your son will be fine. Continue the formula - US formula contains TRACE amounts of melamine that won't harm the baby. Formula in CHINA was lethally contaminated with melamine and cause a few infant deaths and hundreds of illnesses. But the ones in the US - so far - are safe. |

Got what you meant then. Well... in the US, the FDA is actually rather very strict about foods and such. More strict than in China. But mistakes and stupid actions can cause great consequences. We don't always know what's in our food, which means we have to trust that the FDA and the companies are actually doing their jobs and keeping food clean from harmful shit that could potentially kill us. |
