Hello,  Thanks for your thoughts and feedback.  I have considered it.
However, I have already contacted them about the hormonal contraception
thing.
It may have more validity coming from others and the USBC, AAP, ABM
and other organizations. My intention was to bring it to the attention
to all
on a much grander scale.  Yes, it may be premature.
So, maybe I should have said "loosing faith" either way I am certainly
"utterly frustrated."

For anyone who feels as strongly as I do here is the contact info
address and phone number

Christine -- have you shared your [perfectly valid] concerns about
these pages with the folks at CDC?  Breastfeeding has some great allies
in that agency ... but it is a big federal agency.  I would say it is
premature to "lose faith" in the department until you have at least
contacted them and explained why their pages are NOT helpful (and
conflict with their earlier pages that said BF may certainly continue
with H1N1 is at issue).  CDC has proven in the past that they can move
rather quickly in the decision-maki
ng arena, but they need to know that
a decision needs to be made.
