What a sad state of affairs with the low supply of baby formula

Mothers must be frantic.
I can never understand how vital products are allowed to reach this crisis point.
All we hear about these days is supply chain disruptions.
Really, really sad.

Im having this dilemma, my baby is on premature formual and the shortage is bad, i always have a month stocked up, but right now i barley have enough for two weeks.

We are in close contact with our pediatrician, and even though i dont qualify for wic they have been helping me find locations where they have my sons formula in stock.

I wished like hell i was able to breastfeed but i was only able to for like 3 months, its something im extremely hard on myself for because i know if my body didnt fail me i wouldnt be stressing abou feeding my baby.

@AlyAngel Horrendous situation.
Here is an article published in Australia which may help you find formula.
