Breast milk is best. The message should not be sent to moms to "plan" on starting with formula. I feel that this is what happens with these marketing schemes.

I don't particularly like being marketed to, and I prefer some privacy when my family is growing. If you end up formula feeding or supplementing, the checks from the formula companies can be helpful, but I found generic formula a better overall value. That said, I recently participated in this freebie from Playtex - for a BPA-free bottle. I'm looking forward to trying it as our old Avent bottles safety is questionable and I'm going to switch to something BPA-free anyway. <a href="http://www.playtexbaby.com/bpafree/info.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.playtexbaby.com/bpafree/info.html</a> I'm always a bit reluctant to hand over my personal information in exchange for free things like this.
