Quick! Need this info in one hour: AAP list comparing BF to FF

[rosie29]

Well, I don't know if I'll get a response in one hour, but I have a presentation this morning and wanted to add in the list of preferred infant foods that goes something like this
1 BF
2 expressed mama milk
3 another mama's milk
4 formula

I just don't know if I've got points 2 and 3 right. I looked at the AAP statement but can't find this info.

Help please! TIA!

Yep, that's it!

While commercial infant formulas are commonly perceived to be the medically recommended second-choice infant food after breastfeeding, the World Health Organization (WHO) actually states: "The second choice is the mother's own milk expressed and given to the infant in some way. The third choice is the milk of another human mother. The fourth and last choice is artificial baby milk."

Well it is beyond an hour but just to clarify I believe that list is from the WHO

You are correct, Mamapits - the list is from the World Health Organization. The revised AAP policy statement on breastfeeding which came out earlier this year was a huge step forward - but not *this* far forward. ;-) Ah well, someday they'll get there.

Thanks for your help, mamas! The presentation went really well!
