There is no end in site for parents needing to feed their infants.
The baby formula shortage is in its third month.
Abbott Labs in Michigan voluntarily shut down the plant with concerns of salmonella.
Pediatricians warn parents about homemade formulas and diluting to make it stretch.
Formulas made from scratch do not contain enough protein, fat, vitamins and minerals to help in the child’s development.
Those nutrients cannot be found in grocery stores.
Other reasons for the shortage…supply chain issues and historic inflation.
