hmmmm...interesting little thing I noticed. Nowhere does it say
"breastfeeding" is what is good for babies. It says "breast milk".  I
guess it is a matter of language, but I think breastfeeding is more
than breastmilk feeding.  If I only thought it was important for
babies to receive breastmilk, I would not waste my time with latch
issues, I would just rent pumps and be sure they pump often and
maintain their milk supply.  It does say when breastfeeding is
established you can use their products.  That is the only time
breastfeeding is mentioned.

Oh well, what can I say.  In the end, all corporations are about
profit and money is the only place they feel a pinch.  I suggest we
help them feel the pinch until they lose the bottle nipple
advertisements.  Unfortunately, choices are limited in terms of
options for those moms who really must express milk with a hospital
grade electric pump.  What is available in the area, is what they have
to choose from.  Sadly, I think like all companies, Medela is well
aware of this reality.

Take care,
Pam MazzellaDiBosco
