The cost of baby formula has soared in price, causing some desperate families to take unsafe measures to feed their children - including buying dangerous unsealed products or even stealing.
Data from First Steps Nutrition shows that the cheapest brand of formula has increased in price by 45% in the past two years.
On the Sky News Daily, Leah Boleto speaks to Sky's Tom Parmenter, who uncovered the story and has been speaking to affected parents.
She also talks to Clare Murphy from the British Pregnancy Advice Service, who says the country is on the brink of a public health crisis.
