I was one of those who resigned from ICEA following the New Parent fiasco. Why they keep sending me the junk, I don't know, but the latest magazine appeared in my box today. It contains the same bad stuff, (except since the previous issue they've removed the "to accentuate your curves up top, keeping the attention where you want it" ending to the sentence about how poor stoop-shouldered breastfeeding moms need to do push-ups) with one charming addition: right across from one of the pages of the breastfeeding article, p 39, is an advertisement for "Bloussant Breast Enhancing Tablets" ("increases your breast size, firmness and fullness--naturally!"). I don't know if it's funny or pathetic. Probably both. Three other snake-oil products are also hocked there. I'm glad I'm not on the ICEA board... regards, Beth perinatal educator, former ICCE -- /\/\ Beth Johnson / o o\ Cosmic Wonderer ( / ^^\) Springfield, MA USA \ M_M/ "Ruling a country is like cooking a small fish-- you have to handle it with care."--Lao Tzu *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
