    But as always, this wasn't posted to attack FF'ers and I hope the conversation stays on track because I think its valuable information even for those who FF so they are informed about what they are buying and whats in it - if it means changing to a different/safer brand then it's helped someone. I wouldn't refrain posting an article on the dangers of smoking so I don't offend those who can't help but to smoke... it's just that people have emotions surrounding this and we are responsible for feeling our own emotions. No-one makes anyone feel anything, its all in the interpretation and own experiences and what that triggers. Some people say xxx makes me feel guilty - well why do you feel guilty if you aren't guilty? Something we can only answer for ourselves and find better ways to deal with our emotions. A great article here about this issue in particular, with the whole BM and FF stuff: Artificial Feeding: Nothing To Do With Breastfeeding

    Kelly- I totally agree with this Sorry if my post didn't come across the right way. I would definately like to know if there was a problem with the formula i had chosen for DS so that i could change it to something better for him. So far DS has no problems with his one, thank god, But im sorry for the babies who are/have been affected by the additives in some formula's. I had a read of that article too, it was great.

    Sherie- The "gold" written on the tins is misleading, DS formula is a gold one and i chose it for that reason, i thought it would be a bit better than the normal one, i still have a lot to learn lol. Yep i have noticed the price goes up with the ingredients!

    Oh and i buy the tip top omega-3 for its quality after freezing too!!
