As many local moms struggle amidst a baby formula shortage, many are fearing they won't be able to feed their babies if relief does not come soon.

"Every morning, I wake up and I get on Target," said mother Rebecca Stevens. "I get on Walmart and Amazon. And I look for the formula and I can't find anything."

Stevens, the mother of a 5-month-old boy named Lewis, stopped breastfeeding on Mother's Day not realizing the extreme baby formula shortage affecting many parents in America. With only enough formula to feed her infant for maybe a week or two, she took to Facebook to see if anyone had extra formula.
