I don't think it's possible, but it would kind of be cool, like a water filter, so you don't have to get all that.

It changes from different stages of breastfeeding.
I think they give you a year.
So breastfeed for a year, but get back to work in 12 weeks.
So Laura, I want to sort of change directions a little bit.
You know, you're involved not just in having created another pathway for women to think about formula and mothers to feed their babies healthier options, but you're also looking at what's happening kind of at a policy level.
And I know you've got a lot of flack for this, but you met with Bobby Kennedy, RFK Jr.
And other formula groups who are part of this effort called Operation Stork Speed.
Can you speak to what that is, why it's important and what's going on around this in terms of the regulatory and legislative aspects of protecting our children and improving their health?
You have to be the table.
So take us inside that room.
What were the conversations?
And what are the other CEOs in the big formula companies like Abbott and Mead saying?
And how are you kind of trying to change the conversation to move things in a healthier direction for infants?
The second thing we talked about was... You mean we shouldn't have the equivalent of a can of Coke a day that the baby's consuming?
