Parents across the U.S. are scrambling to find baby formula because supply disruptions and a massive safety recall have swept many leading brands off store shelves.

Nationwide about 40% of large retail stores are out of stock, according to Datasembly, an analytics firm that collects data from 11,000 locations.
