Parents are suing the ByHeart company for their sick babies. They say the baby formula made their children very ill.

Rose Dexter, a 4-month-old baby, became very sick in summer. Piper Everett, also 4 months, went to the hospital in November.

At least 15 babies in many states have been sick. The ByHeart company recalled all its baby formula nationwide.

Sick babies got a special medicine called BabyBIG for treatment. Rose and Piper became better and could go home.

Parents chose the organic formula for a natural, healthier choice. ByHeart officials said they would address the lawsuits later.
