Recent posts have been few and far between, as baby business is taking up more time than I thought possible (welcome to motherhood!) Anyway, I feel like some space is now available in my brain for things other than nappies/milk/laundry, and this happy situation has come about thanks to formula milk. Yep, like so many others, I was going to breastfeed 100% of the time - but being woken up throughout the night for feeds hasn't done my health much good, so wonderful hubbie is now taking over on the night feed front.
I've found Hipp Organic milk has been a life-saver. Just giving L a couple of formula feeds during the night means I get my sleep, and I'm fully functioning to look after him and breast feed him during the day. And I've spotted Cow & Gate have now started an organic version of their milk which is widely available. Others recommended by 'The Organic Baby Book' (Maxted-Frost, 2003) include Eco-Lac, Babynat, Holle and Nanny's Goat Milk.
So at least if L's drinking something that isn't my own milk, he's getting milk that's as good as it can be - for his health and for the planet.
