Please be careful here! It's *Motherhood Maternity and Mothers Work*

that is in partnership with Ross Labs. *Motherwear* is a company

that sells nursing clothes, and unequivocally supports breastfeeding.

Big difference! : )

Yes, Wendi, I have difficulty with this as well. At the hospital I gave birth

at they did have a separate bag for breastfeeders, and it was actually useful.

The best part was that it had a thick brochure that was an excerpt from " The

Nursing Mothers Companion " , a book that was extremely useful to me.

On another list I'm on there was a woman who was putting together a

breastfeeding packet of goodies for exactly this purpose, to balance out the

formula companies packet. She had gotten Lansinoh to donate free samples, (no

flames here, please!), and a bunch of other free stuff.

I used to think the diaper bag they gave me at the hospital was really useful,

now I just see it as a free advertisement for formula and don't use it any

more.

In terms of the donation of formula, I am really torn. For me this is a real

moral dilemma and I don't know what the answer is. I certainly don't want to

participate in a baby not getting breastfed. However, I have worked with

homeless families and have seen how hard it is for them to get by. I wish

everyone would breastfeed, but if they don't, then I certainly don't want a

baby to get diluted formula, or cows milk or some other inappropriate food

either. I'll have to think about this some more.

Jen,

I, too, had many problems bfdg all of my children. Ty and I are just now

getting the milk supply thing handled and he is 5 1/2 mo old. The first

priority of any mother is to nurture her baby. If that includes formula for

different reasons, no one would knock her for that. I hated giving formula to

Ty, but he had to eat while we worked on our issues. When any company

sabotoges bfdg though it is a sad day for all of us. You and I are stubborn

and did not give in, but many people who don't have proper info, etc. and who

have formula ready, free and available would not do the same thing. I do not

believe that formula companies wish for mothers to bfd their babies...not for

one minute. They simply cannot refute the benefits and the fact that bm is

so far superior to their product. I don't think there is any easy answer

here. I was dismayed when I purchased some nursing night shirts and was

encouraged to get on a list where I could receive formula and other coupons.

I told the mgr. of the store that I felt something else should have been

offered to mother's who choose to bfd. She thanked me and handed me a

nursing wear cataloge...better than nothing:)

For me it is a problem of the WHO code being violated. The World Health

Organization (WHO) monitors worldwide health and they came up with this code

because about a million and a half babies a year die from being denied

breastmilk (this is worldwide). This is not just a matter of a feeding

choice. It is a matter of formula fed babies being 14 times more likely to

be hospitalized in their first year. That is a risk that I am completely

unwilling to take. Cigarettes are dangerous and they won't let minors buy

them, car seats save lives and here in my state they are mandatory by law,

bike helmets are also mandatory for kids under 12 but we make no laws to

protect our infants from the formula industry. Every time that a business

sells-out to the formula industry more babies die. That is intolerable to

me. I don't think I would be so passionate about this if it weren't for me

witnessing first-hand (when I worked in the Newborn ICU) the dangers of not

breastfeeding. I would hate for thousands of pregnant women to be swayed by

marketing at a desperate time.

Then in my opinion its not similac's fault they are willing to give away

their

product. Its someone else's fault for not comming up with a " gift " to give

breastfeeding mothers. Just because someone chooses to formula feed their

child doesnt mean that they should not get any freebies because there are no

freebies for the breastfeeding mothers. Maybe the key is to write to Avent

or

Medela or Ameda and have them put together a free breastfeeding mother's

kit. I think the formula companies are already doing a great job since they

include information on breastfeeding in their packs. The pack I got from my

hospital had bf'ing information in it as well as a cold pack for keeping bm

I resent it. It is made up by WHO (world health organization) and Unicef.

Everyone around the world is supposed to follow it. The U.S didn't sign on
