A nationwide baby formula shortage is calling for mothers to consider breastfeeding. While this seems like a no brainer, breastfeeding isn't an easy task.
A recall of powdered baby formula that was manufactured at Abbott Laboratories has been recalled due to infants suffering from a serious bacterial infection after consuming formulas from that location. Similac, Alimentum and EleCare are manufactured at the Sturgis, Michigan lab.
While a mother's milk is always encouraged, sometimes it isn't a viable option. Luckily, there are plenty of nutrient-rich formulas on the market for all infants, including those with food allergies.
