I just checked mine and yes!
It needs to have an expiration date g April 2022 or later and made in abbot factory
Supposedly there's been complaints of food poisoning. They haven't found anything yet but they are trying to figure it out
So scary!

Yup, my baby is kn elecare as he has severe allergies. I checked the can we were using - it was part of the recall. Switched him to one that was not part of the recall but he is throwing up and not eating for the past two days. Dunno if it’s incidental or not but I’m so nervous.

I read the recall. It's unclear. I use the soy similac powder. Is that also part of the recall?

These moms don't need you guilt tripping. Two of these types of formulas are for kids with severe allergies- they may not be able to be breastfed without allergic reactions. Go preach to people who want to hear it. Not to mothers who are doing their best to feed their kids and may have invested hours and hours pumping and months of restricted diets before realizing their child needed formula

This. As I posted above, my child has severe allergies. But you know what? I didn’t try to breastfeed. (Thank G-d as it may have taken months of me trying different foods while all the while my severely allergic son was bleeding in his colon but that’s not the point) and I don’t have to explain my reasons as to why not. I can’t stand when people push breast. There are so many people who choose not to breastfeed and that is totally and completely fine. Both for them and their babies.

Thank you for this. I feel enough guilt reading the container that says breastfeeding is best as if I didn't know that. Please appreciate your bracha that it worked for you. BH my baby is now thriving as opposed to before when he lost a significant amount of weight and was always broken out.
That being said, I'm trying to figure out if my Similac is bad. I tried that lot identification but it wasn't working and I couldn't figure out if it was right or wrong. Any advice?

I saw something about adding an extra zero at the end of the code when you put it in online. See if that helps (we use generic soy so I haven't needed to check)

What should I be doing if I think my child used the recalled formula?

I don’t think you need to do anything if your child is fine. If your child had food poisoning, you would know.

Everyone has a right to an opinion!

She deleted her post. It's rude to bring up a deleted post.

This thread was NOT the place for that opinion.

Everyone has a right to an opinion and to do what works best for them. But to tell a parent who is scared and upset about a really unfortunate occurrence that they brought it on themselves by their own "bad choices" is highly insensitive.
And both you and chambray know that- which is why you posted anonymously. Deep down you were embarrassed of yourselves.

No. This thread was about recalled formula. No one asked about breastfeeding. Seriously. These breastfeeding mom who have nothing better to do than try to guilt trip others really need to take a look at themselves.
