Baby Formula Recall

Two weeks ago approximately I was watching the news when I heard that Similac Advance powdered formulas may have been contaminated with beetle larvae. I immediately when on-line to the site and determined that, sure enough, my son's formula had been recalled. It was not the most alarming thing I've ever experienced. As a new mother again and a mother of two older children I've dealt with cradle cap, jaundice, blood issues, to loss of hearing. Nevertheless, we've ended up switching to Infamil as it is hard to find any form of Similac in stores now. Initially we switched to another type, then we used the liquid version of the recalled. That liquid version is too expensive for the quantity. Trust me, none of this is a cause for complaint, but rather of giving thanks to God. I just went to a funeral today for a 20 year old. I'm grateful to be a mother or mine, no matter what!
