No the key word is everyone should..................... When in fact if you are taking a class you would know you absolutely should not if you do not have to. |

Same here... My children didn't need suppliments. The only time you would need suppliment for a baby is when the mom isn't producing sufficient quantity or has some kind of deficiency... |

And to think -- a 60+ great-grampa would know them all ????
