A shortage of baby formulas is making it extremely tough for some local moms.
In February, the CDC announced a recall to powdered formula produced at a Abbott Nutrition facility.
"A lot of the cans that I did have got recalled. So I had to turn those in. But then they didn't have any cans to replace those...If you have a child on WIC," Turner said."You have to have doctors notes for them to change your formula. Even though that they know that there is this shortage going on. They won't change your formula brand without a doctors note. And doctors won't change those things without seeing your kid.
"They suggested switching her to Enfamil Gentle Ease," Castro said."So...I've been able to find that...They told me to mix it in, you know, like a 50-50 ratio. So that's what we've been doing."
