Free Baby Formula

September 15th, 2008

Free baby formula: can you get it? Is there really such a thing as a free lunch? Perhaps not in our capitalistic society yet many new parents are very tempted by the idea of saving some money. Free baby formula would be great, as a new baby already will make a huge dent your pocketbook (don’t forget about college!). Here are some helpful pointers to find that elusive free baby formula:

  • Never try to make homemade baby formula. Although it may sound very tempting, even by following a recipe to the exact letter, your batch will probably not contain the sufficient nutrients your baby needs which can lead to malnourishment and weight loss. Store-brought formulas are carefully regulated and prepared by exacting FDA standards.
  • Never mix regular cow’s milk with your baby formula or feed it straight to your baby. It’s very hard for a baby to digest and does not contain most of the nutrients needed for a balanced diet.
  • So it seems the only true free lunch is through corporate handouts. Try a sample, but you’ll probably end up buying a whole box of your own unless you’re willing to surf the Net all night (hmm, a nifty idea if your baby’s up ;-) !
