What did women do before formula was invented?

Wet nurses.

“After getting over my formula phobia, I began feeding little Joey the formula and he began packing on the pounds. Next year, he hopes to play on the local football team as an offensive tackle.”

Not all of them can, for one reason or another.

Gosh! What did women do for the thousand of year before baby formula? I guess they just sat in the corner wondering when someone would come along and provide food for their baby.

Oh yeah! they sometimes cooked food for their entire family, including babies.

You want me an almost 81 year old woman to nurse my baby? My baby is 59 years old. I don’t think he needs nursing anymore.

I had cloth diapers for my kids. Just imagine how much money the mother’s could save if they would go back to cloth diapers. The only exemption should be if the family goes on a trip.

the reason that there was a toilet paper shortage is that some ignorant selfish idiots bought so much shit paper that would last them for years.

They probably breast fed them and than gave them cow milk as they got older.

I can‘t believe that so many people both here and elsewhere are telling mothers to just breastfeed. I breast fed both my sons for a total of almost three years (added together) and could still produce milk a year later but not everyone can. My daughter got sick and her milk dried up. It happens. I just heard that WAPO gave four Pinocchios to someone who accused Biden of sending all the formula to the border, based upon a 1990 law that said that the illegal immigrants must be fed. So angry about this latest failure of Brandon‘s administration.
