I have severe post partum depression, have a full time job and raise 3 kids on my own..i never once gave formula to my baby..i think that’s horrible what Brooke Shield’s did

How disappointing that she stopped breastfeeding for monetary gain

Her daughter is beautiful, and so is she!

with minor differences, formula’s formula. The idea that Enfamil or Similac are better BECAUSE they’re more expensive is like saying Bright Beginnings is better BECAUSE Brooke Shields says so.

We tried Bright Beginnings and found it to be fine. I mean really fine, so fine that it clumped if the humidity was >10%, which made it harder to dissolve.

There’s a side-by-side taste test on the web somewhere, but I can’t find the link.

I just don’t trust it when a celebrity endorses any product. Maybe Brooke LOVES this brand or this product but if Brand X gave her more money, maybe she would have endorsed their product instead. For all we know, Brooke never used this product.

It’s kind of rare for Americans to endorse products in the United States, with the exception of cosmetics, sneakers and TrimSpa (enlighten me if I’m wrong) so to see Brooke endorsing this or any product was surprising to me. And because it was a baby product, it directly applied to my site. That’s why I posted it.

I have passed -no- judgement on the benefits on using formula vs breastfeeding- it doesn’t have a place on this site.

hhhmm? if Brooke Shields is rich and famous then why would she buy cheap generic bright beginings formula when she can buy way better brand name formula like Enfamil or Similac. they spend so much on other stuff but they get cheap formula?

back to the topic…Because of her busy lifestyle, she soon began supplementing breastfeeding with
Bright Beginnings infant formula….thats so lame. Again, these people are way selfish about not wanting to give up thier lives for thier kids. I dont know but when I had a baby my life stopped. I guess thats not the case with everyone.

The title in no way is bashing anything. Danielle didn’t even give an opinion. And if she did, we’re fine with opposing comments are long as they aren’t flat out rude to people.

The rules are basically for people complaining about how the site is run-if you don’t like it, don’t visit-and for people that feel the need to spam posts with “Wow, that kid is ugly.” And that topic has already been discussed into the ground, hence why the post was closed.

If anyone feels the need to discuss the rules further, take it off the blog and email instead. The address is at the top left.

Back to the topic, please!

I think it’s interesting that somewhere else on this board, it was mentioned not to bash celebrities or the posts would be deleted. Then I read the heading for this and couldn’t believe it. Isn’t commenting on Brooke’s decision on how to feed her baby considered a form of bashing? Geesh, this place is hypocritical.

Thanks Sarah! You are very sweet. I feel very comfortable giving my comments. This blog is great. I love it.

Jennifer, comment all you want! You’re not a problem for us, it’s others. Just make sure you’re not attacking people specifically (which you’re not!)
