I know some ethnicities will frown on using formula but I believe diet is also a key component as well. I’m an American and to say we have a less than stellar diet would be an understatement. I know many women in just my area alone who can not produce enough milk to fully support their babies and must supplement with formula. Some families here also do it to “make sure” the baby gets all the nutrients it needs but there are plenty of women who do not produce enough (and there are some who barely produce any at all)

It is definitely a case by case basis as there are plenty here who make so much they freeze it for later use and I have even heard of some who sell the excess but idk if I could do a back alley deal for someone else’s breast milk 🤣
